Configuring the Bridge for Secure Shell
This section describes how to configure the Secure Shell (SSH) feature.
Note For complete syntax and usage information for the commands used in this section, refer to the "Secure
Shell Commands" section in the Cisco IOS Security Command Reference for Release 12.2.

Understanding SSH

SSH is a protocol that provides a secure, remote connection to a Layer 2 or a Layer 3 device. There are
two versions of SSH: SSH version 1 and SSH version 2. This software release supports only SSH
version 1.

Purpose
Set the login authentication to use the local username database. The
default keyword applies the local user database authentication to all
interfaces.
Configure user AAA authorization to determine if the user is allowed to
run an EXEC shell by checking the local database.
Configure user AAA authorization for all network-related service
requests.
Enter the local database, and establish a username-based authentication
system.
Repeat this command for each user.
• For name, specify the user ID as one word. Spaces and quotation
marks are not allowed.
• (Optional) For level, specify the privilege level the user has after
gaining access. The range is 0 to 15. Level 15 gives privileged EXEC
mode access. Level 0 gives user EXEC mode access.
For encryption-type, enter 0 to specify that an unencrypted password
•
follows. Enter 7 to specify that a hidden password follows.
For password, specify the password the user must enter to gain access
•
to the bridge. The password must be from 1 to 25 characters, can
contain embedded spaces, and must be the last option specified in the
username command.
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Verify your entries.
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
