SECURE SHELL
This section describes the commands used to configure the SSH server.
Note that you also need to install a SSH client on the management station
when using this protocol to configure the switch.
N
OTE
:
The switch supports both SSH Version 1.5 and 2.0 clients.
Configuration Guidelines
The SSH server on this switch supports both password and public key
authentication. If password authentication is specified by the SSH client,
then the password can be authenticated either locally or via a RADIUS or
TACACS+ remote authentication server, as specified by the authentication
login command. If public key authentication is specified by the client, then
you must configure authentication keys on both the client and the switch
as described in the following section. Note that regardless of whether you
use public key or password authentication, you still have to generate
authentication keys on the switch and enable the SSH server.
