1.4 Install paramiko module
Paramiko is a Python (2.7, 3.4+) implementation of the SSHv2 protocol [1], providing both client and server functionality. While it leverages a Python C extension for low level cryptography (Cryptography), Paramiko itself is a pure Python interface around SSH networking concepts.
- Install Python 2.7.11
- Download and install pycrypto win-amd64-py2.7.exe
- Now open a command prompt. If you have installed python at the following location:
c:\Python27 then change directory and go to Scripts directory.
pip install paramiko
- Now Test with the following command:
import paramiko
C:\Python27>cd Scripts
C:\Python27\Scripts>pip install paramiko
