1.3.1 Configuring the User Interfaces for SSH Clients
An SSH client accesses the device through a VTY user interface. Therefore, you need
to configure the user interfaces for SSH clients to allow SSH login. Note that the
configuration takes effect at the next login.
Table 1-3 Follow these steps to configure the user interface for SSH clients:
Enter system view
Enter user interface
view of one or more
user interfaces
Configure the
authentication mode
as scheme
Specify the supported
protocol(s)
Caution:
If you have configured a user interface to support SSH protocol, you must configure
AAA authentication for the user interface by using the authentication-mode
scheme command to ensure successful login.
On
authentication-mode none command has been executed, the protocol inbound
ssh command is not available. Similarly, if the protocol inbound ssh command
has
authentication-mode none commands are not available.
1.3.2 Configuring the SSH Management Functions

prevent illegal operations such as malicious password guess, further guaranteeing the
security of SSH connections.
