Usage Guidelines SSH consists of a server and a client program. Like Telnet, you can use the client program to remotely
log in to a machine that is running the SSH server, but unlike Telnet, messages transported between the
client and the server are encrypted. The functionality of SSH includes user authentication, message
encryption, and message authentication.
Note The Telnet daemon can still be used with the WAAS device. SSH does not replace Telnet.
