Alteon OS Command Reference

Running SSH

Once the IP parameters are configured and the SSH service is turned on the GbE Switch Module, you can access the command line interface using an SSH connection. The default setting for SSH access is disabled.

To establish an SSH connection with the switch, run the SSH program on your workstation by issuing the SSH command, followed by the switch IP address:

>># ssh <switch IP address>

or, if SecurID authentication is required, use the following command:

>># ssh -1 ace <switch IP address>

You will then be prompted to enter your user name and password.
