Configuring SSHv2

You can configure the device to use any combination of the available authentication types. The SSH server and client negotiate which type to use.

To configure SSHv2, follow these steps:

  1. Generate ECDSA or RSA host key, and private key pair for the device.

    Refer to Enabling and Disabling SSH by Generating and Deleting Host Keys.

  2. Configure ECDSA or RSA challenge-response authentication.

    Refer to Configuring RSA Challenge-Response Authentication.

  3. Set optional parameters.

    Refer to Setting Optional Parameters.
