2.2.2 SSH
2.2.2.1 Introduction to SSH
SSH (Secure Shell) is a protocol which ensures a secure remote access connection to network
devices. It is based on the reliable TCP/IP protocol. By conducting the mechanism such as key
distribution, authentication and encryption between SSH server and SSH client, a secure
connection is established. The information transferred on this connection is protected from
being intercepted and decrypted. The switch meets the requirements of SSH2.0. It supports
SSH2.0 client software such as SSH Secure Client and putty. Users can run the above
software to manage the switch remotely.
The switch presently supports RSA authentication, 3DES cryptography protocol and SSH user
password authentication etc.

no ssh-server authentication-retries
Configure the number of times for retrying SSH
authentication; the no command restores the
default number of times for retrying SSH
authentication.
