Block SNMP
The boot flag setting for block-snmp (boot config flags block-snmp) and the runtime
configuration of SSH secure (ssh secure) each modify the block-snmp boot flag. If you enable
SSH secure mode, the system automatically sets the block-snmp boot flag to true; the change takes
effect immediately. After enabling SSH in secure mode, you can manually change the block-snmp
flag to false to allow both SSH and SNMP access.
Important:
The block flag setting for block-snmp blocks Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)v1,
SNMPv2, and SNMPv3.
Third-party SSH and SCP client software
The following table describes the third-party SSH and SCP client software that has been tested but
is not included with this release.
Note:
The current release does not support Secure Copy (SCP). For the current release, use SFTP to
transfer files securely.
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.
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
• Client distribution includes an SCP
client that is not compatible with The
VSP modular switch.
