Avocent CPS1610 CPS - Manual (Page 41)

Chapter 3: Operations 35
Since the CPS allows multiple connection modes to operate concurrently, you
can specify multiple encryption types. For example, the following command
enables connections via Telnet and via DSView SSL Telnet using Triple DES
or RC4 encryption.
server security encrypt=none,3des,128
The following command enables connections via DSView SSL Telnet using
only DES. SSH2 client connections are also enabled, but plain text Telnet
sessions are not allowed.
server security encrypt=des,ssh
The following command enables connections via SSH2 clients only. Plain text
Telnet and Avocent SSL connections will be refused.
server security encrypt=ssh
To specify encryption method(s):
Issue a Server Security command, using the Encrypt parameter to specify one
or more encryption algorithm values, separated by commas.
SERVER SECURITY ENCRYPT=<encrypt>
If you specify DS authentication and do not specify an encryption algorithm, a
default value of 128,3DES,DES is used.
If you disable authentication (Auth=None), you cannot specify any encryption.
You may disable encryption for all authentication methods except DS.
For more information, see Server Security command in Chapter 5.
To display encryption confi guration information:
Issue a Show Server Security command.
SHOW SERVER SECURITY
For more information, see Show Server Security command in Chapter 5.
Using Security Lock-out
When the Security Lock-out feature is enabled, a user will be locked-out after
five consecutive authentication failures. A successful authentication will
reset the counter to zero. You may configure a lock-out period of from 1-99
hours. Specifying a lock-out period of Ø disables the feature; that is, users
will not be locked-out.
