ssh

Open an SSH connection specifying the hostname, username, port number, and version of the SSH client.

Syntax ssh { hostname | ipv4 address | ipv6 address} [ -c encryption cipher | -l username | -m HMAC alogorithm | -p port-number | -v {1|2}]
Parameters
hostname (OPTIONAL) Enter the IP address or the hostname of the remote device.
ipv4 address (OPTIONAL) Enter the IP address in dotted decimal format A.B.C.D.
ipv6 address prefix-length (OPTIONAL) Enter the IPv6 address in the x:x:x:x::x format then the prefix length in the /x format. The range is from /0 to /128
  • NOTE: The :: notation specifies successive hexadecimal fields of zeros.
-c encryption cipher Enter the following encryption cipher to use. (For v2 clients only.) Without the FIPS mode enabled:
  • 3des-cbc: Force ssh to use 3des-cbc encryption cipher.

With the FIPS mode enabled:

  • aes128–cbc: Force ssh to use the aes128–cbc encryption cipher.
  • aes256–cbc: Force ssh to use the aes256–cbc encryption cipher.
-l username (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword —l then the user name used in this SSH session. The default is the user name of the user associated with the terminal.
-m HMAC algorithm Enter one of the following HMAC algorithms to use. (For v2 clients only.):

Without the FIPS mode enabled:

  • hmac-sha1: Force ssh to use the hmac-sha1 HMAC algorithm.
  • hmac-shal-96: Force ssh to use the hmac-sha1–96 HMAC algorithm.
  • hmac-md5: Force ssh to use the hmac-md5 HMAC algorithm.
  • hmac-md5–96: Force ssh to use the hmac-md5–96 HMAC algorithm.

With the FIPS mode enabled:

  • hmac-sha1: Force ssh to use the hmac-sha1 HMAC algorithm.
  • hmac-sha1–96: Force ssh to use the hmac-sha1–96 HMAC algorithm.
-p port-number (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword —p then the port number.

The range is 1 to 65536

The default is 22
-v {1|2} (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword —v then the SSH version 1 or 2.

The default: The version from the protocol negotiation.

  • NOTE: If the FIPS mode is enabled, this option does not display in the output.
Defaults As indicated above.
