III. Configuration procedure
1)
Configure the SSH server
# Generate an RSA key pair and enable SSH server.
<SwitchB> system-view
[SwitchB] public-key local create rsa
[SwitchB] ssh server enable
# Configure an IP address for VLAN-interface 1, which the SSH client will use as the
destination for SSH connection.
[SwitchB] interface vlan-interface 1
[SwitchB-Vlan-interface1] ip address 10.165.87.136 255.255.255.0
[SwitchB-Vlan-interface1] quit
# Set the authentication mode for the user interface to AAA.
[SwitchB] user-interface vty 0 4
[SwitchB-ui-vty0-4] authentication-mode scheme
# Enable the user interface to support SSH.
[SwitchB-ui-vty0-4] protocol inbound ssh
# Set the user command privilege level to 3.
[SwitchB-ui-vty0-4] user privilege level 3
