Opening CLI with Secure
Shell Secure Shell Protocol is a protocol that provides a secure, remote connection to
networking devices. Secure Shell (SSH) is a software package that provides secure
login sessions by encrypting the entire session. SSH features strong cryptographic
authentication, strong encryption, and integrity protection. For detailed
information on SSH, visit the homepage of SSH Communications Security, Ltd.

http://www.ssh.com/ .
SSH provides more security for remote connections than Telnet by providing
strong encryption when a device is authenticated. SSH versions 1 and 2 are
supported in this release.
See Configuring the Access Point for Secure Shell on page 228 for detailed
instructions on setting up the wireless device for SSH access.
