Configuring The Device As An Stelnet Client; Stelnet Client Configuration Task List; Specifying A Source Ip Address Or Source Interface For The Stelnet Client - HP 12500 Series Configuration Manual

Step
5. Set the maximum number of
SSH authentication attempts.
6. Configure the SFTP
connection idle timeout
period.
NOTE:
Authentication fails if the total number of authentication attempts (including both publickey and password
authentication attempts) exceeds the upper limit configured by the ssh server authentication-retries

Configuring the device as an Stelnet client

Stelnet client configuration task list

Task
Specifying a source IP address or source interface for the Stelnet
client
Enabling and disabling first-time authentication
Establishing a connection to an Stelnet server
Specifying a source IP address or source interface for the
Stelnet client
By default, an Stelnet client uses the IP address of the outbound interface specified by the route to the
Stelnet server when communicating with the Stelnet server. You can specify a source IP address or source
interface for the client to communicate with the server. To make sure that the Stelnet client and the Stelnet
server can communicate with each other, and to improve the manageability of Stelnet clients in the
authentication service, HP recommends you to specify a loopback interface or dialer interface as the
source interface.
To specify a source IP address or source interface for the Stelnet client:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Specify a source IP
address or source
interface for the Stelnet
client.

•
Specify a source IPv6 address or source
interface for the Stelnet client:
ssh client ipv6 source { interface
interface-type interface-number | ipv6
ipv6-address }
