Dell Networking OS SCP, which is a remote file copy program that works with SSH.
NOTE: The Windows-based WinSCP client software is not supported for secure copying between a PC
and a Dell Networking OS-based system. Unix-based SCP client software is supported.
To use the SSH client, use the following command.
• Open an SSH connection and specify the hostname, username, port number,encryption cipher,HMAC
algorithm and version of the SSH client.
EXEC Privilege mode
ssh {hostname} [-l username | -p port-number | -v {1 | 2}| -c encryption cipher
| -m HMAC algorithm
hostname is the IP address or host name of the remote device. Enter an IPv4 or IPv6 address in dotted
decimal format (A.B.C.D).
• SSH V2 is enabled by default on all the modes.
• Display SSH connection information.
EXEC Privilege mode
show ip ssh
Specifying an SSH Version
The following example uses the ip ssh server version 2 command to enable SSH version 2 and the
show ip ssh command to confirm the setting.
Dell(conf)#ip ssh server version 2
Dell(conf)#do show ip ssh

SSH server ciphers : 3des-cbc,aes128-cbc,aes192-cbc,aes256-cbc,aes128-
ctr,aes192-ctr,aes256-ctr.
SSH server macs : hmac-md5,hmac-md5-96,hmac-sha1,hmac-sha1-96,hmac-
sha2-256,hmac-sha2-256-96.
SSH server kex algorithms : diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha1,diffie-hellman-
group1-sha1,diffie-hellman-group14-sha1.
