SSH Authentication Mode Settings:
Password: Allows user to use a locally configured password for authentication on the Switch. When SSH
status is enabled, the Password is enabled by default.
Public Key: This parameter may be enabled if the administrator wishes to use a public key configuration set
on a SSH server, for authentication on the Switch. The default is disabled.
Host Based: This parameter may be enabled if the administrator wishes to use a host computer for
authentication. This parameter is intended for Linux users requiring SSH authentication techniques and the
host computer is running the Linux operating system with a SSH program previously installed. The default is
disabled.
Encryption Algorithm:
DES-CBC: Use the check box to enable or disable the Data Encryption Standard encryption algorithm with
Cipher Block Chaining. The default is enabled.
3DES-CBC: Use the check box to enable or disable the Triple Data Encryption Standard encryption
algorithm with Cipher Block Chaining. The default is enabled.
Data Integrity Algorithm: When SSH status is enabled, the HMAC-MD5 and HMAC SHA1 are enabled by
default.
HMAC-MD5: Use the check box to enable the supports of hash for message Authentication Code (HMAC)
MD5 Message Digest (MD5) mechanism.
HMAC-SHA1: Use the check box to enable the supports of hash for message Authentication Code (HMAC)
Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA) mechanism.
Public Key Algorithm:
HMAC-RSA: Use the check box to enable the supports of Hash for Message Authentication Code (HMAC)
mechanism utilizing the RSA encryption algorithm. The default is disabled.
