Telnet traffic on the network is not secure. This menu enables Secure Shell (SSH) access from any SSH
client. The SSH program securely logs into another computer over a network and executes commands
in a secure environment. All data using SSH is encrypted.
NOTE: See the HP 10Gb Ethernet BL-c Switch Application Guide for information on SSH.
The following table describes the SSHD Configuration Menu options.

SSHD Configuration Menu options
Command Description
intrval <0-24>
Defines interval for auto-generating the RSA server key. The switch will
auto-generate the RSA server key at the interval defined in this command.
The value of zero (0) means the RSA server key auto-generation is
disabled. If the switch has been busy performing any other key generation
and the assigned time of interval expires, the RSA server will skip
generating the key.
scpadm
Defines the administrator password that is for Secure Copy (SCP) only. The
username for this SCP administrator is scpadmin.
Typically, SCP is used to copy files securely from one machine to another.
In the switch, SCP is used to download and upload the switch
configuration using secure channels.
hkeygen
Generates the RSA host keys manually. The switch creates this key
automatically while configuring the switch with Secure Shell (SSH). But you
can generate the key manually by using this command if you need to
overwrite the key for security reasons. The command will take effect
immediately without executing the apply command.
skeygen
Generates the RSA server key. The switch creates this key automatically
while configuring the switch with Secure Shell (SSH). You can generate the
key manually by using this command if you need to overwrite the key for
security reasons. The command will take effect immediately without
executing the apply command.
sshport <TCP port number>
Sets the SSH server port number.
ena
Enables the SCP apply and save.
dis
Disables the SCP apply and save. This is the default for SCP.
on
Enables the SSH server.
