3.3.4 Secure Shell (SSH, SSH2):

SSH is an encrypted Command Line Interface that allow user to send text commands

through SSL encryption. Therefore, it provides the added advantage of security comparing

to Telnet. As with Telnet, the SSH and SSH2 provide the possibility to write a text script and
paste into the CLI interface for multiple command execution. It also makes configuration

change across many A.DUOs easier. The default management port for SSH/SSH2 is

TCP/UDP port 22.

To manage via the SSH/SSH2 protocol, you would need a SSH client. Free SSH clients are

widely available on the Internet. You can find where to download them by using Internet

search engine such as Google. In this guide, we will use a popular SSH/Telnet utility call
