There are several types of SSH client software, such as PuTTY and FreeBSD. You
should first configure the client's connection with the server. The basic
configuration tasks on client include:

Specifying the server IP address.

■
Selecting the SSH protocol. The client supports the remote connection
■
protocols link Telnet, Rlogin and SSH. To set up the SSH connection, you must
select the SSH protocol.
Choosing the SSH version. The switch currently supports SSH Server 1.5, so you
■
have to choose 1.5 or earlier version.
Specifying the RSA private key file. If you specify RSA authentication for the
■
SSH user, you must specify the RSA private key file. The RSA key, which
includes the public key and private key, are generated by the client software.
The former is configured in the server (switch) and the latter is in the client.
The following description takes the PuTTY as an example.
Start the PuTTY program. The client configuration interface, shown in Figure 10,
displays.
