This menu enables Secure Shell (SSH) access from any SSH client. TheSSH program securely logs into another computer over a network and executes commands in a secureenvironment. All data using SSH is encrypted.Secure Shell can be configured on the switch using the console port only. The menu options do not display if youaccess the switch using Telnet or the Browser-based Interface (BBI).NOTE: See the Application Guide for information on SSH.The following table describes the SSHD Configuration Menu options.Table 60 SSHD Configuration Menu optionsCommand Descriptionintrval <0-24> Defines interval for auto-generating the RSA server key. The switch willauto-generate the RSA server key at the interval defined in thiscommand. The value of zero (0) means the RSA server key auto-generation is disabled. If the switch has been busy performing any otherkey generation and the assigned time of interval expires, the RSAserver will skip generating the key.scpadm Defines the administrator password that is for Secure Copy (SCP) only.The username for this SCP administrator is scpadmin.Typically, SCP is used to copy files securely from one machine toanother. In the switch, SCP is used to download and upload the switchconfiguration using secure channels.hkeygen Generates the RSA host keys manually. The switch creates this keyautomatically while configuring the switch with Secure Shell (SSH). Butyou can generate the key manually by using this command if you needto overwrite the key for security reasons. The command will take effectimmediately without executing the apply command.skeygen Generates the RSA server key. The switch creates this keyautomatically while configuring the switch with Secure Shell (SSH). Youcan generate the key manually by using this command if you need tooverwrite the key for security reasons. The command will take effectimmediately without executing the apply command.sshport <TCP port number> Sets the SSH server port number. The default is 22.ena Enables the SCP apply and save.dis Disables the SCP apply and save. This is the default for SCP.on Enables the SSH server.off Disables the SSH server. This is the default for the SSH server.cur Displays the current SSH server configuration.
