Using the Secure Shell server

Use the management module Secure Shell server to open a secure connection to a command-line interface.

The following SSH clients are available. Although some SSH clients have been tested, support or nonsupport of any particular SSH client is not implied.

• The SSH clients that are distributed with operating systems such as Linux, AIX®, and UNIX (see your operating-system documentation for information)
• The SSH client of cygwin (see http://www.cygwin.com for information)

If you are using a Secure Shell client that is based on openSSH, such as the client that is included in Red Hat Linux version 7.3, to start an interactive command-line Secure Shell session to a management module with network address 192.168.70.2, type a command similar to the following example:

            ssh -x -l USERID 192.168.70.2
         

where -x indicates no X Window System forwarding and -l indicates that the session is to use the login ID USERID.
