1.3.5.4 Login Through SSH (Outband Management)
This topic describes how to log in to the MA5600T/MA5603T/MA5608T using the local
maintenance Ethernet port (outband management port) in the secure shell (SSH) mode to
maintain and manage the MA5600T/MA5603T/MA5608T. The SSH provides authentication,
encryption, and authorization to ensure the network communication security. When a user logs
in to the MA5600T/MA5603T/MA5608T remotely over an insecure network, SSH provides
security guarantee and powerful authentication to protect the MA5600T/MA5603T/MA5608T
against attacks such as IP address spoofing and interception of plain text password.
Prerequisites
Engineers are logged in to the MA5600T/MA5603T/MA5608T by using the local serial port or
the ETH port.
NOTE
The default IP address of the maintenance Ethernet port (ETH port on the control board) is 10.11.104.2,
and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.

serial port, see

For details about how to log in to the MA5600T/MA5603T/MA5608T by using the ETH
port, see the following:
–
Configure the IP address of the PC that is used for logging in to the MA5600T/
MA5603T/MA5608T. This IP address is on the same subnet as the IP address of the
maintenance Ethernet port but is not the IP address of the maintenance Ethernet port.
For example, configure the IP address to 10.11.104.6.
–
After logging in to the MA5600T/MA5603T/MA5608T, run the
ip address
command
to change the IP address of the device to 10.50.1.10/24.
–
Change the IP address of the PC to be on the same subnet as the IP address of the
maintenance Ethernet port but is not the IP address of the maintenance Ethernet port.
For example, change the IP address of the device to 10.50.1.11/24.
