Description

Enable SSH on Standalone SMA1000 series Hardware & Virtual Appliance.

Resolution

To Enable SSH access:

1. In the AMC, navigate to System Configuration | Services.

2. In the Network Services section, click the Configure link under SSH.

3. To enable SSH, select the Enable SSH checkbox.

4. To add a host from which you want to enable SSH access, click + icon, type the IP address and subnet mask for the host you want to add, and then click OK (Always remember or save a screenshot of the subnet added).

5. To add a authorized key for users that you want to allow to access the appliance without a password, click + icon, paste the public SSH key, and then click OK.

6. Click Save and apply pending changes.

To delete a host:
 
1. Select the checkbox to left of any hosts you want to remove.

2. Click Delete icon, and then click Save.
 
 NOTE:  You can enable SSH access from any host by typing 0.0.0.0 for both the IP address and the subnet mask. Keep in mind, however, that the trade-off for this convenience is decreased appliance security.
