Display SSH statusDisplays the SSH status of the CMM. Returned values are:
  • -cstatus: state of CLI SSH server (enabled, disabled)
  • -sftpstatus: state of secure FTP server (enabled, disabled)
  • CLI SSH port number
  • ssh-dss fingerprint
  • ssh-rsa fingerprint
  • number of SSH public keys installed
  • number of locations available to store SSH keys
Note
For scripting purposes, the "-v1 off" state is always displayed.

Example:

To display SSH status, while the primary CMM in bay 1 is set as the persistent command environment, at the system:mm[1]> prompt, type
sshcfg

The following example shows the information that is returned from this command:

system:mm[1]> sshcfg
-v1 off
-cstatus enabled
-sftpstatus enabled
