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
You can set the service type to Stelnet, SFTP, or SCP.
•
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.
• All authentication methods, except password authentication, require a client's host public key or
digital certificate to be specified.
