Concept Guide

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
aes128-ctr
aes192-ctr
aes256-ctr
The default cipher list is in the given order: aes256-ctr, aes256-cbc, aes192-ctr, aes192-cbc, aes128-ctr, aes128-cbc, 3des-cbc.
Example of Conguring a Cipher List
The following example shows you how to congure a cipher list.
Dell(conf)#ip ssh cipher aes128-ctr aes128-cbc 3des-cbc
Conguring DNS in the SSH Server
Dell EMC Networking provides support to enable the DNS in SSH server conguration for host-based authentication. You can specify
whether the SSH Server should look up the remote host name and check whether the resolved host name for the remote IP address maps
to the same IP address. By default, the DNS in the SSH server conguration is disabled.
To enable the DNS in the SSH server conguration, use the following command.
Enable the DNS in the SSH server conguration.
CONFIGURATION mode
[no] ip ssh server dns enable
To disable the DNS in the SSH server conguration, use the no version of this command.
NOTE
: You can use the ip ssh server dns enable command only in Full-Switch mode.
Example of DNS Conguration in SSH Server Connections
To view the status of DNS in the SSH server conguration, use the show running-config ip ssh command from EXEC mode.
DellEMC#show running-config ip ssh
!
ip ssh server dns enable
ip ssh hostbased-authentication enable
no ip ssh password-authentication enable
ip ssh server enable
