Managing the Management Services 115

To add administrative user wxadmin with password letmein, and use RADIUS server group sg1 to authenticate the user, type the following commands:

WX1200# set user wxadmin password letmein success: User wxadmin created

WX1200# set authentication admin wxadmin sg1 success: change accepted

(For more information, see “Adding and Clearing Local Users for Administrative Access” on page 59.)

Changing the SSH Service Port Number

To change the SSH port the WX switch listens on for SSH connections, use the following command:

set ip ssh port port-num

CAUTION: If you change the SSH port number from an SSH session, MSS immediately ends the session. To open a new management session, you must configure the SSH client to use the new SSH port number.

Managing SSH Server Sessions

Use the following commands to manage SSH server sessions:

display sessions admin

clear sessions admin ssh [session-id]

These commands display and clear SSH server sessions.

If you type the clear sessions admin ssh command from within an SSH session, the session ends as soon as you press Enter.

To display the SSH server sessions on a WX switch, type the following command:

WX1200# display sessions admin
