SSH Authmode and Algorithm Settings
The SSH Algorithm window allows the configuration of the desired types of SSH algorithms used for authentication encryption. There are four categories of algorithms listed and specific algorithms of each may be enabled or disabled by checking the boxes. All algorithms are enabled by default.
To view this window, click Security > SSH > SSH Authmode and Algorithm Settings as shown below:

Parameter | Description |
|
|
|
|
| SSH Authentication Mode Settings |
|
Password | This parameter may be enabled if the administrator wishes to use a locally configured |
|
| password for authentication on the Switch. The default is enabled. |
|
|
|
|
Public Key | This parameter may be enabled if the administrator wishes to use a public key configuration |
|
| set on a SSH server, for authentication on the Switch. The default is enabled. |
|
|
|
|
| This parameter may be enabled if the administrator wishes to use a host computer for |
|
| authentication. This parameter is intended for Linux users requiring SSH authentication |
|
| techniques and the host computer is running the Linux operating system with a SSH |
|
| program previously installed. The default is enabled. |
|
|
|
|
| Encryption Algorithm |
|
| Check the box to enable the Triple Data Encryption Standard encryption algorithm with |
|
| Cipher Block Chaining. The default is enabled. |
|
|
|
|
| Check the box to enable the Blowfish encryption algorithm with Cipher Block Chaining. The |
|
| default is enabled. |
|
|
|
|
| Check the box to enable the Advanced Encryption Standard AES128 encryption algorithm |
|
| with Cipher Block Chaining. The default is enabled. |
|
|
|
|
| Check the box to enable the Advanced Encryption Standard AES192 encryption algorithm |
|
| with Cipher Block Chaining. The default is enabled. |
|
|
|
|
| Check the box to enable the Advanced Encryption Standard |
|
| with Cipher Block Chaining. The default is enabled. |
|
|
|
|
ARC4 | Check the box to enable the Arcfour encryption algorithm with Cipher Block Chaining. The |
|
| default is enabled. |
