Specifying a source IP address/interface for the SSH client
This configuration task allows you to specify a source IP address or interface for the client to access the
SSH server, improving service manageability.
Step Command Remarks
1. Enter system view. system-view N/A
2. Specify a source IP
address or interface for
the SSH client.
• Specify a source IPv4 address or interface
for the SSH client:
ssh client source { ip ip-address | interface
interface-type interface-number }
• Specify a source IPv6 address or interface
for the SSH client:
ssh client ipv6 source { ipv6 ipv6-address |
interface interface-type interface-number }
By default, an SSH client uses
the IP address of the outbound
interface defined by the route
to the SSH server to access the
SSH server.
Enabling and disabling first-time authentication
When the device connects to the SSH server as an SSH client, you can configure whether the device
supports first-time authentication.
• With first-time authentication, when an SSH client not configured with the server host public key
accesses the server for the first time, the user can continue accessing the server, and save the host
public key on the client. When accessing the server again, the client will use the saved server host
public key to authenticate the server.
• Without first-time authentication, a client not configured with the server host public key will refuse to
access the server. To enable the client to access the server, you must configure the server host public
key and specify the public key name for authentication on the client in advance.
Enabling first-time authentication
Step Command Remarks
1. Enter system view. system-view N/A
2. Enable the device to support
first-time authentication.
ssh client first-time enable
Optional.
By default, first-time authentication
is supported on a client.
Disabling first-time authentication
For successful authentication of an SSH client not supporting first-time authentication, the server host
public key must be configured on the client and the public key name must be specified.
To disable first-time authentication:
Step Command Remarks
1. Enter system view. system-view N/A
2. Disable first-time
authentication support.
undo ssh client first-time
By default, first-time authentication
is supported on a client.
