Secure Shell (SSHv2)
VOSS 4.2 release updates Secure Shell implementation on the switch. The switch now only
supports Secure Shell version 2 (SSHv2).
SSHv2 also adds encryption support for MD5, SHA-1, and SHA-2.
VOSS 4.2 release updates RSA and DSA key size ranges.
For more information, see:
•
Client and server support on page 38.
• Enabling remote access services on page 41.

• Secure Shell configuration using Enterprise Device Manager on page 159.
Serial console port behavior
VOSS 4.2 release adds the ability to configure the serial management ports to drop a connection
that is interrupted for any reason. If you enable serial port dropping, the serial management ports
drop the connection for the following reasons:
• modem power failure
• link disconnection
• loss of the carrier
