Command Usage
â—† The SSH server supports up to eight client sessions. The maximum number of
client sessions includes both current Telnet sessions and SSH sessions.
â—† The SSH server uses DSA or RSA for key exchange when the client first
establishes a connection with the switch, and then negotiates with the client to
select either DES (56-bit) or 3DES (168-bit) for data encryption.
â—† You must generate DSA and RSA host keys before enabling the SSH server.
