Secure Shell (SSH) can provide information security and powerful authentication to
prevent such assaults as IP address spoofing, plain-text password interception when
users log on to the Switch remotely using an insecure network environment.
A Switch can connect to multiple SSH clients. SSH 2.0 and SSH1.x are currently
■
available.
SSH client functions to enable SSH connections between users and the Switch or
■
UNIX host that support SSH server.
