9.5 Configuring the STelnet Client Function
9.5.1 Establishing the Configuration Task
Applicable Environment
The SSH2 feature offers security guarantee and powerful authentication. It protects the router
form attacks such as IP address spoofing and interception of plain text password. The SSH
user can use the STelnet service as the Telnet service.
Pre-configuration Tasks
Before connecting the STelnet client to the SSH2 server, complete the following tasks:
z
Generating the local RSA key pair on the SSH server
z
Configuring the SSH user on the SSH server
z
Enabling the STelnet service on the SSH server
Data Preparation
To connect the STelnet client to the SSH2 server, you need the following data:
No.
Data
1
Name of the SSH server
2
Number of the port monitored by the SSH server
3
Preferred encrypted algorithm from the STelnet client to the SSH server
4
Preferred encrypted algorithm from the STelnet server to the SSH client
5
Preferred HMAC algorithm from the STelnet client to the SSH server
6
Preferred HMAC algorithm from the STelnet server to the SSH client
7
Preferred algorithm of key exchange
8
Name of the egress
9 Source
address
Configuration Procedures
To configure the functions for STelnet client server, you need to take the following steps.
No.
Procedure
1
Enabling the First-Time Authentication on the SSH Client
