Ssh Authentication Mode And Algorithm Settings - D-Link DES-3350SR User Manual

SSH Authentication Mode and Algorithm Settings

The SSH Algorithm window allows the configuration of the desired types of SSH algorithms used for authentication encryption.
There are three categories of algorithms listed and specific algorithms of each may be enabled or disabled by using their
corresponding pull-down menus. All algorithms are enabled by default. To open the following window, click Security
Management > Secure Shell (SSH) > SSH Authentication Mode and Algorithm Settings:
The following algorithms may be set:
Parameter
Password
Public Key
Host-based
3DES-CBC
Blow-fish CBC

Description
Authentication Algorithm
This field may be enabled or disabled to choose if the administrator wishes to use a
locally configured password for authentication on the Switch. This field is Enabled by
default.
This field may be enabled or disabled to choose if the administrator wishes to use a
publickey configuration set on a SSH server, for authentication. This field is Enabled
by default.
This field may be enabled or disabled to choose if the administrator wishes to use a
host computer for authentication. This parameter is intended for Linux users requiring
SSH authentication techniques and the host computer is running the Linux operating
system with a SSH program previously installed. This field is Enabled by default.
Encryption Algorithm
Use the pull-down to enable or disable the Triple Data Encryption Standard encryption
algorithm with Cipher Block Chaining. The default is Enabled.
Use the pull-down to enable or disable the Blowfish encryption algorithm with Cipher
Block Chaining. The default is Enabled.
