CONFIGURATION mode
copy scp: flash:
The following example shows the use of SCP and SSH to copy a software image from one switch running SSH server on UDP
port 99 to the local switch.
Other SSH related command include:
crypto key generate : generate keys for the SSH server.
debug ip ssh : enables collecting SSH debug information.
ip scp topdir : identify a location for files used in secure copy transfer.
ip ssh authentication-retries : configure the maximum number of attempts that should be used to authenticate a
user.
ip ssh connection-rate-limit : configure the maximum number of incoming SSH connections per minute.
ip ssh hostbased-authentication enable : enable host-based authentication for the SSHv2 server.
ip ssh password-authentication enable : enable password authentication for the SSH server.
ip ssh pub-key-file : specify the file the host-based authentication uses.
ip ssh rhostsfile : specify the rhost file the host-based authorization uses.
ip ssh rsa-authentication enable : enable RSA authentication for the SSHv2 server.
ip ssh rsa-authentication : add keys for the RSA authentication.
show crypto : display the public part of the SSH host-keys.
show ip ssh client-pub-keys : display the client public keys used in host-based authentication.
show ip ssh rsa-authentication : display the authorized-keys for the RSA authentication.

Secure Shell Authentication
Secure Shell (SSH) is enabled by default using the SSH Password Authentication method.
Configuring the HMAC Algorithm for the SSH Client
To configure 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:
