If you SSH to other hosts in VM running under VMware workstation, you may get the following error:
packet_write_wait: Connection to x.x.x.x port 22: Broken pipe
- To resolve this issue use bridged networking instead of NAT in VMware workstation. If you still want to keep NAT networking, add the following to your ~/.ssh/config file:
Host *
IPQoS=throughput
The above issue is caused by a change in openSSH 7.8.
