The SSH Server
A shortcoming of the standard telnet protocol is that it transfers password and data over the net
unencrypted, thus compromising security. Where security is a concern, using a Secure Shell (SSH)
server rather than telnet is recommended.
An SSH server is similar to a telnet server, but it uses cryptographic techniques that allow it to
communicate with any SSH client over an insecure network in a manner which ensures the privacy of
the communication. CLI commands are executed over SSH in exactly the same manner as over telnet.
The SSH server supports both the SSHv1 and SSHv2 protocols. You can disable SSHv1, so that only
SSHv2 is running.
An Access Control List (ACL) can be configured for SSH as for any other management protocol, limiting
SSH access to a specific set of IP addresses (see
