SSH 
Secure Shell (SSH) is a program allowing secure remote login and secure network services over an insecure network. 
It allows a secure login to remote host computers, a safe method of executing commands on a remote end node, and 
will provide secure encrypted and authenticated communication between two non-trusted hosts. SSH, with its array of 
unmatched security features is an essential tool in today’s networking environment. It is a powerful guardian against 
numerous existing security hazards that now threaten network communications. 
The steps required to use the SSH protocol for secure communication between a remote PC (the SSH client) and the 
Switch (the SSH server) are as follows: 
•  Create a user account with admin-level access using the User Accounts window. This is identical to creating 
any other admin-level User Account on the Switch, including specifying a password. This password is used to 
logon to the Switch, once a secure communication path has been established using the SSH protocol.
