Configuring an SSH user

To configure an SSH user that uses publickey authentication, you must perform the procedure in this
section.
To configure an SSH user that uses password authentication, whether together with publickey
authentication or not, you must configure a local user account by using the local-user command for local
authentication, or configure an SSH user account on an authentication server, for example, a RADIUS
server, for remote authentication. For more information about the local-user command, see Security
Command Reference.
For password-only SSH users, you do not need to perform the procedure in this section to configure them
unless you want to use the display ssh user-information command to display all SSH users, including the
password-only SSH users, for centralized management.
Configuration guidelines
When you perform the procedure in this section to configure an SSH user, follow these guidelines:
You can set the service type to Stelnet or SFTP.
•
You can enable one of the following authentication modes for the SSH user:
•
Password—The user must pass password authentication.
Publickey authentication—The user must pass publickey authentication.
Password-publickey authentication—As an SSH2.0 user, the user must pass both password and
publickey authentication. As an SSH1 user, the user must pass either password or publickey
authentication.
Any—The user can use either password authentication or publickey authentication.
Except password authentication, the other authentication methods require a client's host public key
•
to be specified, and the specified public key must already exist. For more information about public
keys, see
• If publickey authentication, whether with password authentication or not, is used, the command
level accessible to the user is set by the user privilege level command on the user interface. If only
password authentication is used, the command level accessible to the user is authorized by AAA.
