Table 37: Third-party SSH and SCP client software
SSH Client Secure Shell (SSH) Secure Copy (SCP)
Tera Term Pro with
TTSSH extension
MS Windows
• Supports SSHv2.
• Authentication:
- RSA is supported when the
switch acts as a server. The VSP
switch does not support RSA as a
client.
- DSA
- Password
• Provides a keygen tool.
• It creates both RSA and DSA
keys.
• Client distribution does not include SCP
client.
• Client distribution does not support
WinSCP client.
Secure Shell Client
Windows 2000
• Supports SSHv2 client.
• Authentication
- DSA
- Password
• Provides a keygen tool.
• It creates a DSA key in SSHv2
format.
• The VSP modular switch
generates a log message stating
that a DSA key has been
generated.
• Client distribution includes an SCP
client that is not compatible with The
VSP modular switch.
• Client distribution does not support
WinSCP client.
OpenSSH
Unix Solaris 2.5 / 2.6
• Supports SSHv2 clients.
• Authentication:
- RSA is supported when the
switch acts as a server. The VSP
switch does not support RSA as a
client.
- DSA
- Password
• Provides a keygen tool.
• It creates both RSA and DSA
keys.
• Client distribution includes an SCP
client that is supported on The VSP
modular switch.
WinSCP N/A This SCP client is unsupported on the
VSP modular switch.
