Secure Shell (SSH) for IPv6
SSH for IPv4 and IPv6 operate simultaneously with the same command set. Both are enabled in the default configuration, and are controlled together by the same command set.
Client public-key authentication: Public keys from SSH clients are stored on the switch. Access to the switch is granted only to a client whose private key matches a stored public key.
Password-only client authentication: The switch is SSH-enabled but is not configured with the login method that authenticates a client's public-key. Instead, after the switch authenticates itself to a client, users connected to the client authenticate themselves to the switch by providing a valid password that matches the operator- and/or manager-level password configured and stored locally on the switch or on a RADIUS or TACACS+ server.
Secure Copy (SCP) and Secure FTP (SFTP) client applications: You can use either one SCP session or one SFTP session at a given time to perform secure file transfers to and from the switch.
