Example of Configuring a Key Exchange Algorithm
The following example shows you how to configure a key exchange algorithm.
DellEMC(conf)# ip ssh server kex diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha1 diffie-hellman-
group14-sha1
Configuring the HMAC Algorithm for the SSH Server
To configure the HMAC algorithm for the SSH server, use the ip ssh server mac hmac-algorithm command in
CONFIGURATION mode.
hmac-algorithm: Enter a space-delimited list of keyed-hash message authentication code (HMAC) algorithms supported by the
SSH server.
The following HMAC algorithms are available:
hmac-md5
hmac-md5-96
hmac-sha1
hmac-sha1-96
hmac-sha2-256
The default HMAC algorithms are the following:
hmac-sha2-256
hmac-sha1
hmac-sha1-96
hmac-md5
hmac-md5-96
When FIPS is enabled, the default HMAC algorithm is hmac-sha2-256,hmac-sha1,hmac-sha1-96.
Example of Configuring a HMAC Algorithm
The following example shows you how to configure a HMAC algorithm list.
DellEMC(conf)# ip ssh server mac hmac-sha1-96
Configuring the HMAC Algorithm for the SSH Client
To configure the HMAC algorithm for the SSH client, use the ip ssh mac hmac-algorithm command in CONFIGURATION
mode.
hmac-algorithm: Enter a space-delimited list of keyed-hash message authentication code (HMAC) algorithms supported by the
SSH server.
The following HMAC algorithms are available:
hmac-md5
hmac-md5-96
hmac-sha1
hmac-sha1-96
hmac-sha2-256
The default list of HMAC algorithm is in the following order:
hmac-sha2-256
