As detailed in Chapter 4, the Server gateway is set up in Console Server mode with either RAW
or RFC2217 enabled and the Client gateway is set up in Serial Bridging Mode with the Server
Address, and Server TCP Port (4000 + port for RAW or 5000 + port # for RFC2217) specified:
Select SSH Tunnel when configuring the Serial Bridging Setting
Next you will need to set up SSH keys for each end of the tunnel and upload these keys to the
Server and Client gateways.
Client Keys
The first step in setting up SSH tunnels is to generate keys. Ideally, you will use a separate,
secure machine to generate and store all keys to be used on the devices. However, if this is not
ideal to your situation, keys may be generated on the Console Servers themselves.
It is possible to generate only one set of keys, and reuse them for every SSH session. While this
is not recommended, each organization will need to balance the security of separate keys
against the additional administration they bring.
