NOTE
Before You Begin
Cisco 500 Series Stackable Managed Switch Administration Guide
In order to support auto configuration of an out-of-box device (device with factory
default configuration), SSH server authentication is disabled by default.
Supported Algorithms
When the connection between a device (as an SSH client) and an SSH server is
established, the client and SSH server exchange data in order to determine the
algorithms to use in the SSH transport layer.
The following algorithms are supported on the client side:
•
Key Exchange Algorithm-diffie-hellman
•
Encryption Algorithms
-
aes128-cbc
-
3des-cbc
-
arcfour
-
aes192-cbc
-
aes256-cbc
•
Message Authentication Code Algorithms
-
hmac-sha1
-
hmac-md5
Compression algorithms are not supported.
The following actions must be performed before using the SCP feature:
•
When using the password authentication method, a username/password
must be set up on the SSH server.
•
When using public/private keys authentication method, the public key must
be stored on the SSH server.
