config ssh server
Purpose
Used to configure the SSH server.
Syntax
config ssh server {maxsession <int 1-8> | contimeout <sec 30-600> | authfail<int 2-20>
| rekey [10min | 30min | 60min | never] | port <tcp_port_number 1-65535>}(1)
Description
This command allows users to configure the SSH server.
Parameters
maxsession <int 1-8>
−
Allows the user to set the number of users that may simultaneously
access the Switch. The default setting is
8
.
contimeout <sec 30-600>
−
Allows the user to set the connection timeout. The user may set
