SSH2 client
Brocade# ssh 10.10.10.2
To start an SSH2 client connection to an SSH2 server using public key authentication, enter a
command such as the following:
Brocade# ssh 10.10.10.2 public-key dsa
Syntax: ssh ipv4Addr | ipv6Addr | host-name [public-key [dsa | rsa]] [port portnum]
The ipv4Addr | ipv6Addr | host-name variable identifies an SSH2 server. You identify the server to
connect to by entering its IPv4 or IPv6 address or its hostname.
The optional [public-key [dsa | rsa]] parameter specifies the type of public key authentication to
use for the connection, either DSA or RSA. If you do not enter this parameter, the default
authentication type is password.
The optional port portnum parameter specifies that the SSH2 connection will use a non-default
SSH2 port, where portnum is the port number. The default port number is 22.
