6.2.3 Description of SSH access
The SSH server of the Switch allows you to configure the Switch by using the
Command Line Interface (in-band) (see
“Preparing for access via SSH” on
page 212 ). You can deactivate the SSH server to prevent SSH access to the
Switch.
The server is deactivated by default.
After the SSH server has been deactivated, you will no longer be able to
access the switch via a new SSH connection. An existing SSH connection
will be preserved.
Note: The command-line interface (out-of-band) and the dialog
Security:Telnet/Web Access
in the web-based interface offer the
option of reactivating the SSH server.
