You can open an SSH session and run commands or script files. This method ofconnectivity is supported with S4810, S4048–ON, S3048–ON, S4820T, and Z9000 switches and provides a reliable, safecommunication mechanism.Entering CLI commands Using an SSH ConnectionYou can run CLI commands by entering any one of the following syntax to connect to a switch using the preconfigured usercredentials using SSH:ssh username@hostname Command>orecho | ssh admin@hostnameThe SSH server transmits the terminal commands to the CLI shell and the results are displayed on the screen non-interactively.Executing Local CLI Scripts Using an SSH ConnectionYou can execute CLI commands by entering a CLI script in one of the following ways:ssh username@hostname orcat < CLIscript.file > | ssh admin@hostnameThe script is run and the actions contained in the script are performed.40 Getting Started
