When trying to enable SSH on monitoring point - Outlined in KB: How to enable SSH on AppNeta monitoring points

Output Status Code is 500, instead of 200

{
  "status": 500,
  "success": false,
  "result_data": null,
  "exception_data": {
    "msg": "Failed to start ssh service: Command '['systemctl', 'start', 'ssh']' returned non-zero exit status 1.",

    "name": "InternalError"
  }
}

Resolution

Perform monitoring point reflash may fix this issue. This will reload the monitoring point OS, keeping configuration intact:
