Secure Shell Authentication
Secure Shell (SSH) is enabled by default using the SSH Password Authentication method.
Conguring the HMAC Algorithm for the SSH Client
To congure the HMAC algorithm for the SSH client, use the ip ssh mac hmac-algorithm command in CONFIGURATION mode.
hmac-algorithm: Enter a space-delimited list of keyed-hash message authentication code (HMAC) algorithms supported by the SSH
server.
The following HMAC algorithms are available:
• hmac-md5
• hmac-md5-96
• hmac-sha1
• hmac-sha1-96
• hmac-sha2-256
The default list of HMAC algorithm is in the following order:
• hmac-sha2-256
• hmac-sha1
• hmac-sha1-96
• hmac-md5
• hmac-md5-96
When FIPS is enabled, the default HMAC algorithm is hmac-sha2-256, hmac-sha1, hmac-sha1-96.
Example of Conguring a HMAC Algorithm
The following example shows you how to congure a HMAC algorithm list.
Dell(conf)# ip ssh mac hmac-sha1-96
Conguring the SSH Client Cipher List
To congure the cipher list supported by the SSH client, use the ip ssh cipher cipher-list command in CONFIGURATION mode.
cipher-list-: Enter a space-delimited list of ciphers the SSH Client supports.
The following ciphers are available.
• 3des-cbc
• aes128-cbc
• aes192-cbc
• aes256-cbc
