1.1.4 Logon by SSH
To log on by SSH, a Putty client software is recommended. There are two authentication modes to
set up an SSH connection:
Password Authentication Mode: It requires username and password, which are both admin by
default.
Key Authentication Mode: It requires a public key for the switch and a private key for the SSH
client software. You can generate the public key and the private key through Putty Key Generator.
Note:
Before SSH login, please follow the steps shown in Figure 1-13 to enable the SSH function through
Telnet connection.
