Secure Shell (SSHv2)
VOSS 4.2.1 introduces the command enable ssh sftp, which allows you to disable SFTP while
SSH remains active. For more information, see Disabling SFTP without disabling SSH on
page 159.
VOSS 4.2
Features
See the following sections for information about feature changes.
Channelization
Channelization allows you to configure 40Gbps QSFP+ ports to operate as four 10 Gigabit Ethernet
ports.
For more information, see:
• Channelization on page 70.
•
Enabling channelization on page 79.
• Configuring channelization on page 86.
Encryption module changes
VOSS 4.2 release includes the encryption modules in the image file. Therefore, the commands
load-encryption-module and software add-modules have been removed. The commands
are no longer required for the current release to load the encryption modules. However, if you
downgrade the switch from the VOSS 4.2 version, you continue to require these commands. For
more information, see the procedure for downgrading the software in Release Notes for VSP
Operating System Software, NN47227-401.
Enhanced secure mode
VOSS 4.2 release adds support for the new boot config flags enhancedsecure-mode
command. If you enable enhanced secure mode, the system can provide role-based access levels,
strong password requirements, and strong rules on password length, password complexity,
password change intervals, password reuse, and password maximum age use.
For more information see
•
Enhanced secure mode authentication access levels on page 167.
•
Password requirements on page 169.
• System access security enhancements using ACLI on page 180.
•
Logging on to the system on page 163.
• Access, logon names, and passwords on page 202.
