Connecting to host via SSH has failed, verify that the host is reachable (IP address, routable address etc.) You may refer to the engine.log file for further details. tried to add the host in the normal way, with the same credentials and succeeded.

I just tested it in my environment and it worked well. Can you re-test, or give me details to your Foreman environment so I can test it?
