Set the server to be incompatible with
the SSH 1.x client
By default, the server is compatible with the SSH 1.x client.
A variety of SSH client software are available, such as PuTTY. For an SSH client to
establish a connection with an SSH server, you must complete these configuration
tasks:
Specifying the IP address of the server.
■
Selecting the protocol for remote connection. Usually, a client can use a variety
■
of remote connection protocols, such as Telnet, Rlogin, SSH. To establish an
SSH connection, you must select SSH.
Selecting the SSH version. Since the device supports SSH Server 2.0 now, select
■
2.0 for the client.
Specifying the RSA private key file. On the server, if RSA authentication is
■
enabled for an SSH user and a public key is set for the user, the private key file
corresponding to the public key must be specified on the client. RSA key pairs
are generated by a tool of the client software.
The following takes the client software of PuTTY, PuTTYGen and SSHKEY as
examples to illustrate how to configure the SSH client:
Currently, the S3200 Series Ethernet Switches support using PuTTY (Version 0.58).
