SSH Client User Configuration

On this page you can change SSH client settings for users.

SSH client known users are used by all applications that play the role of an SSH client, specifically tunneling in Connect Mode. At the very least, a password or key pair must be configured for a user. The keys for public key authentication can be created elsewhere and uploaded to the device or automatically generated on the device. If uploading existing keys, be sure the private key will not be compromised in transit. This implies the data is uploaded over some kind of secure private network.

Note: If you are providing a key by uploading a file, make sure that the key is not password protected.

To configure the SSH client users:

1.Click SSH on the menu bar and then SSH Client Users at the top of the page. The SSH Client: Users page appears.
