1. Enter configuration mode using the following commands.

KlasOS# configure terminal

2. Assign or modify the hostname of the device using the following commands.

Configuring SSH For Remote Access

 
To configure SSH v2 using the KlasOS CLI, follow these steps:
 
1. Enter configuration mode using the following commands.

KlasOS# configure terminal

2. Configure the DNS domain of the router.

3. Add a local username and password using the following command.

KlasOS(config)# username klas secret klas

4. Generate the SSH key to be used using the following commands.

KlasOS(config)# crypto key generate rsa general-keys modulus 2048

% The key modulus size is 2048 bits

% Generating 2048 bit RSA keys, keys will be non-exportable...[OK]

KlasOS(config)#

5. Add the aaa new-model command which causes the local username and password on the router to be used.

KlasOS(config)# aaa new-model

6. Add the aaa authentication login command to enable AAA authentication and use local username and password,
as shown.

KlasOS(config)# aaa authentication login default local

7. (Optional) Return to privileged mode.

KlasOS(config)# end

KlasOS#

8. Use the show ip ssh command to display the status of SSH server.
