Configuring Secure Shell
Cat8540(config)# ip ssh version 2
Cat8540(config)#
To start SSH client functionality on the ATM switch router, perform the following step:
Note You can run the SSH client configuration from any EXEC configuration level.
Example
The following example shows the SSH client using aes128-cbc cipher and hma c-md5-96 HMAC
algorithm to initiate a secure remote command connection with the Router2 router. The SSH server
running on Router2 authenticates the session for the admin7 user on the Router2 router using stand ard
authentication methods and returns the result of the show ip route command to the local switch router.
Note The Router2 router must have SSH enabled for this to work.
Cat8540# ssh -l admin7 -v 2 -m hmac-md5-128 -c aes128-cbc -o numberofpasswordprompts 4
