Configuring Secure Shell: Example

The following example shows how to configure SSHv2 by creating a hostname, defining a domain name,
enabling the SSH server for local and remote authentication on the router by generating a DSA key pair,
bringing up the SSH server, and saving the configuration commands to the running configuration file.
After SSH has been configured, the SFTP feature is available on the router.

You must configure a host domain for the router using the domain-name global configuration
command.
The number of allowable SSH connections is limited to the maximum number of virtual terminal
lines configured for the router. Each SSH connection uses a vty resource.
SSH uses either local security or the security protocol that is configured through AAA on your router
for user authentication. When configuring AAA, you must ensure that the console is not running
under AAA by applying a keyword in the global configuration mode to disable AAA on the console.
