SSH2 supported features
SSH2 (Secure Shell version 2 protocol) provides an SSH server and an SSH client. The SSH server
allows secure remote access management functions on a Brocade device. SSH provides a function
that is similar to Telnet, but unlike Telnet, SSH provides a secure, encrypted connection.
Brocade SSH2 support includes the following:
• Key exchange methods are diffie-hellman-group1-sha1
• The supported public key algorithms are ssh-dss and ssh-rsa.
• Encryption is provided with 3des-cbc, aes128-cbc, aes192-cbc or aes256-cbc. AES encryption
has been adopted by the U.S. Government as an encryption standard.
• Data integrity is ensured with hmac-sha1.
• Supported authentication methods are Password and publickey.
• Five inbound SSH connection at one time are supported.
• One outbound SSH is supported.
SSH2 unsupported features
The following are not supported with SSH2:
• Compression
• TCP/IP port forwarding, X11 forwarding, and secure file transfer
• SSH version 1
