SSH serial interface

SSH serial interface
The SSH interface is designed for various maintenance tasks such as PoE firmware update etc. It is designed to provide an easy and
convenient interface for IT managers who are familiar with SSH. To simplify SSH usage, the SSH interface is menu-driven.
SSH is password protected and shares the same username and password as for web access.
SSH supports RADIUS and TACACS+ username and password authentication.
Note
Only one remote user at a time can access the unit over SSH. In case a second remote SSH user tries to access the unit
while the first SSH user is still active, a message is shown to the second SSH user, requesting the user to try and reconnect
over SSH later.
Note
Non-active SSH sessions (no keystrokes by the remote user) are terminated automatically after three minutes.

useful when the user has multiple units.
