4.1.1.3 SSH
In addition to the unencrypted and potentially viewable Telnet session, you can also con-

ance options can be carried out securely.
The following preconditions must be met in order to connect to the device via SSH:
• The encryption keys needed for the process must be available on the device.
• An SSH client must be installed on your PC.
Encryption keys
