44.7 Secure Telnet Using SSH Examples

This section shows two examples using a command interface and a graphical interface SSH client program to remotely access the ZyWALL. The configuration and connection steps are similar for most SSH client programs. Refer to your SSH client program user’s guide.

44.7.1 Example 1: Microsoft Windows

This section describes how to access the ZyWALL using the Secure Shell Client program.

1Launch the SSH client and specify the connection information (IP address, port number) for the ZyWALL.

2Configure the SSH client to accept connection using SSH version 1.

3A window displays prompting you to store the host key in you computer. Click Yes to continue.

Figure 448 SSH Example 1: Store Host Key

Enter the password to log in to the ZyWALL. The CLI screen displays next.

44.7.2 Example 2: Linux

This section describes how to access the ZyWALL using the OpenSSH client program that comes with most Linux distributions.

1Test whether the SSH service is available on the ZyWALL.

Enter “telnet 192.168.1.1 22” at a terminal prompt and press [ENTER]. The computer attempts to connect to port 22 on the ZyWALL (using the default IP address of 192.168.1.1).

A message displays indicating the SSH protocol version supported by the ZyWALL.

Figure 449 SSH Example 2: Test

$ telnet 192.168.1.1 22 Trying 192.168.1.1...

Connected to 192.168.1.1. Escape character is '^]'. SSH-1.5-1.0.0
