Configuring the SSH Server

The SSH server includes basic settings for authentication.

Field Attributes

•SSH Server Status – Allows you to enable/disable the SSH server on the switch. (Default: Disabled)

•Version – The Secure Shell version number. Version 2.0 is displayed, but the switch supports management access via either SSH Version 1.5 or 2.0 clients.

•SSH Authentication Timeout – Specifies the time interval in seconds that the SSH server waits for a response from a client during an authentication attempt. (Range: 1 to 120 seconds; Default: 120 seconds)

•SSH Authentication Retries – Specifies the number of authentication attempts that a client is allowed before authentication fails and the client has to restart the authentication process. (Range: 1-5 times; Default: 3)

•SSH Server-Key Size – Specifies the SSH server key size. (Range: 512-896 bits;

Default: 768)

-The server key is a private key that is never shared outside the switch.

-The host key is shared with the SSH client, and is fixed at 1024 bits.
