• Interface Name
• SSH Server User Name
• SSH Server Host IP Address
• SSH Configuration Path (directory)
• Incoming SSH Authorized Keys File Name
• SSH DSA Public Key File Name
• SSH DSA Private Key File Name
• SSH Key Management Status File Name (if needed)
2. Click the
Accept changes to group interfaces
button for changes to effect, or click
the
Cancel changes to group interfaces
button to cancel any changes.
To remove a Remote SSH Host description, click the corresponding red
Delete this SSH
server interface
button and it will immediately be removed.
A useful feature of this interface is the ability to test network connections to remote
SSH hosts. Use the
SSH User@IP Connection Test
pull-down menu to select the type of
test. The test options are:
• Ping Test
: Use a simple network ping to test if the base network route to a remote
host exists. To test basic network connectivity, the ping test can be used without
regard to the SSH field configuration. Set the IP address (numeric dot.decimal
format unless DNS is enabled).
• Uname query
: This will attempt to get the operating system name from the remote
host via SSH.
• Date query
: This will attempt to get the date and time from the remote host via
SSH.
•
SCP test
: This will attempt to copy a test file to the remote host via SSH.
