Subprocess can be daunting to try and pick up, but it is
not as bad as it looks at first glance. Subprocess gives you 
a way to run something from the cmd prompt (the Windows shell) 
and send/retrieve data from the prompt. It may be complicated 
depending on what commands you actually want to run and the type 
of output you are trying to retrieve.

In order to make it work you need to be able to run the 
commands from cmd. Of course, you need to install an SSH 
client that will work from CMD prompt.

Here are some links that might help.
