5.4.4 Configuring an SSH User and Specifying STelnet as One of
Service Types
To allow a user to log in to the router by using STelnet, you must configure an SSH user,
configure the router to generate a local RSA key pair, configure a user authentication mode, and
specify a service type for the SSH user.
Context
l SSH users can be authenticated in four modes: RSA, password, password-rsa, and all. You
must create a local user with the specified user name in the AAA view.
l Configuring the router to generate a local RSA key pair is a key step for SSH login. If an
SSH user logs in to an SSH server in password authentication mode, configure the server
to generate a local RSA key pair. If an SSH user logs in to an SSH server in RSA
authentication mode, configure both the server and the client to generate local RSA key
pairs.
NOTE
Password-rsa authentication requires success of both password authentication and RSA authentication. The
all authentication mode requires success of either password authentication or RSA authentication.
Do as follows on the router that functions as an SSH server:
Procedure
Step 1 Run:
system-view
The system view is displayed.
Step 2 Run:
aaa
The AAA view is displayed.
Step 3 Run:
local-user user-name password { simple | cipher } password
