Configuring SSH
1
scp user_name@remote_client:/remote_directory_path/startconfig
admin@virtualadx-mgmt-ip:startconfig
SCP is enabled by default and can be disabled. To disable SCP, enter the following command.
Virtual ADX(config)#ip ssh scp disable
Syntax: [no] ip ssh scp disable | enable
If you disable SSH, SCP is also disabled.
Defining the SSH timeout value
When the SSH server attempts to negotiate a session key and encryption method with a connecting
client, it waits a maximum of 120 seconds for a response from the client. If there is no response
from the client after 120 seconds, the SSH server disconnects.
To change the SSH timeout value, enter the following command.
Virtual ADX(config)#ip ssh timeout 60
Syntax: [no] ip ssh timeout seconds
The seconds variable is from 1 to 120 seconds. The default is 120.
Configuring maximum idle time for SSH sessions
By default, SSH sessions do not time out. Optionally, you can set the maximum idle time in minutes
that an established SSH session can be inactive before the Brocade Virtual ADX closes it. For
example, to set the maximum idle time for SSH sessions to 30 minutes, enter the following
command.
Virtual ADX(config)# ip ssh idle-time 30
Syntax: ip ssh idle-time minutes
The minutes variable is the number of minutes for an inactive SSH session. Enter an integer from 0
to 240. An idle time of 0 minutes is the default value and means SSH sessions never time out.
Displaying SSH information
To display detailed SSH information, enter the following command.
Syntax: show ip ssh
Virtual ADX(config)#show ip ssh
