Configuring the Secure Shell Daemon Protocol

The Secure Shell Daemon (SSHD) protocol provides secure encrypted communications between two hosts communicating over an insecure network. The CSS supports an implementation of OpenSSH to provide this secure communication. SSHD uses the standard CSS login sequence of entering the username and password at the CSS login prompts.

SSHD on the CSS supports both the SSH v1 and v2 protocols. For SSH v1, the software provides encrypted communication using ciphers such as 3DES or Blowfish. For SSH v2, the software provides 128-bit AES, Blowfish, 3DES, CAST128, Arcfour, 192-bit AES, or 256-bit AES.

Caution When using SSHD, ensure that the CSS is not configured to perform a network boot from a network-mounted file system on a remote system (a diskless environment). If you require the CSS to use the network-mounted method of booting, be aware that the SSHD protocol is not supported.

If the CSS has been booted using a network boot from a network-mounted file system, the CSS logs the following error message by SSHD as the protocol attempts to initialize (and then exit from operation):

Unable to initialize sshd; failure to seed random number generator
