iDRAC10 Security Configuration Guide

Secure Shell (SSH)

SSH or Secure Shell is a cryptographic network protocol for operating network services securely over an unsecured network. Typical applications include remote command-line, login, and remote command execution. On iDRAC, SSH can be used to run RACADM commands. The SSH service is enabled by default on iDRAC.

The security settings that are recommended for SSH are:.

• Enable PKI
• Do not use DSA keys
• Enable only elliptic curve key exchanges
• Enable only ciphers with 256-bit key strength or higher
