Command Usage
• The SSH server supports up to four client sessions. The maximum
number of client sessions includes both current Telnet sessions and
SSH sessions.
• The SSH server uses DSA or RSA for key exchange when the client
first establishes a connection with the switch, and then negotiates with
the client to select either DES (56-bit) or 3DES (168-bit) for data
encryption.
• You must generate the host key before enabling the SSH server.
