The Avaya Multiservice switch supports Secure Shell (SSH) version 2 for clients and servers. SSH is a protocol for secure remote login and other secure services. SSH provides a secure service that is similar to Telnet.
SSH is necessary because Telnet transmits unencrypted text TCP/IP packets that anyone on the same network can intercept. SSH encrypts the data being transmitted and allows for several methods of client/server and user authentication, connection integrity, and client/server verification. SSH runs on top of a TCP/IP connection.
