SSH Server

SSH, or Secure Shell or Secure Socket Shell, is a network protocol that enables users, mainly system administrators, to access a computer securely over an unsecured network. SSH refers to the cryptographic network protocol and the set of tools that implement the protocol.

SSH is used to access HySecure securely. An SSH daemon is configured to run on the HySecure server by default. It is advisable to restrict access to SSH by implementing appropriate security measures.

The daemon can be in one of two states:

• Run SSH (enable SSH)
• Stop SSH (disable SSH)

Change the SSH server state

1. Log on to the Management Console.
2. Go to Settings > Service Config > SSH server.

3. The page displays the current state of the SSH server and the links to change the status.

   Click the Stop SSH link to stop the SSH daemon on the server. This will disable SSH.

   Click the Run SSH link to start the SSH daemon on the server. This will enable SSH.
