Configuring The Device As An Ssh Client; Ssh Client Configuration Task List; Specifying A Source Ip Address/Interface For The Ssh Client - H3C S5120-EI Series Operation Manual

Enabling the SSH server to be compatible with SSH1 client
Setting the server key pair update interval, applicable to users using SSH1 client
Setting the SSH user authentication timeout period
Setting the maximum number of SSH authentication attempts
Setting the above parameters can help avoid malicious guess at and cracking of the keys and
usernames, securing your SSH connections.
Follow these steps to set the SSH management parameters:
To do...
Enter system view
Enable the SSH server to work
