• Ensuring the communication between the Stelnet client and the Stelnet server.
• Improving the manageability of Stelnet clients in authentication service.
To specify the source IP address for SSH packets:
Step Command Remarks
1. Enter system view. system-view N/A
2. Specify the source address
for SSH packets.
• Specify the source IPv4 address for
SSH packets:
ssh client source { interface
interface-type interface-number | ip
ip-address }
• Specify the source IPv6 address for
SSH packets:
ssh client ipv6 source { interface
interface-type interface-number | ipv6
ipv6-address }
By default, the source IP
address for SSH packets is not
configured.
The IPv4 SSH packets use the
primary IP address of the output
interface specified in the
routing entry as their source
address.
The IPv6 SSH packets
automatically select an IPv6
address as their source address
in compliance with RFC 3484.
Establishing a connection to an Stelnet server
When you try to access an Stelnet server, the device must use the server's host public key to authenticate
the server. If the server's host public key is not configured on the device, the device will notify you to
confirm whether to continue with the access.
• If you choose to continue, the device accesses the server and downloads the server's host public
key.
• If you choose to not continue, the connection cannot be established.
In an insecure network, H3C recommends that you configure the server's host public key on the device.
