SSH Configuration
Use the SSH Configuration page to configure access to the Secure Shell (SSH) management
interface. SSH provides remote management access to this switch as a secure replacement
for Telnet. When the client contacts the switch via the SSH protocol, the switch generates a
public-key that the client uses along with a local user name and password for access
authentication. SSH also encrypts all data transfers passing between the switch and SSH-
enabled management station clients, and ensures that data traveling over the network arrives
unaltered.
