Prerequisites for Secure Shell Version 2 Support

Prior to configuring SSH,ensure that the required image is loaded on your router. The SSH server requires you to have a k9 (Triple Data Encryption Standard [3DES]) software image from Cisco IOS Release 12.3(4)T, 12.2(25)S, or 12.3(7)JA downloaded on to your router.

Note

The SSH Version 2 server is supported in Cisco IOS Release 12.3(4)T, 12.3(2)XE, 12.2(25)S, and 12.3(7)JA; the SSH Version 2 client is supported beginning with Cisco IOS Release 12.3(7)T and is supported in Cisco IOS Release12.3(7)JA. (The SSH client runs both the SSH Version 1 protocol and the Version 2 protocol and is supported in both k8 and k9 images in Cisco IOS Release 12.3(4)T.)

For more information about downloading a software image, refer to Cisco IOS Configuration Fundamentals Configuration Guide, Release 12.4T and Cisco IOS Network Management Configuration Guide, Release 15.0.

Restrictions for Secure Shell Version 2 Support

SSH servers and SSH clients are supported in 3DES software images.
Execution Shell, remote command execution, and SCP are the only applications supported.
Rivest, Shamir, and Adelman (RSA) key generation is an SSH server-side requirement. Routers that act as SSH clients need not generate RSA keys.
The RSA key pair size must be greater than or equal to 768.
The following functionality is not supported:
- Port forwarding
- Compression

Secure Shell Version 2

The Secure Shell Version 2 Support feature allows you to configure SSH Version 2.

The configuration for the SSH Version 2 server is similar to the configuration for SSH Version 1. The ip ssh version command was introduced so that you may define which version of SSH to configure. If you do not configure this command, SSH by default runs in compatibility mode; that is, both SSH Version 1 and SSH Version 2 connections are honored.

Note

SSH Version 1 is a protocol that has never been defined in a standard. If you do not want your router to fall back to the undefined protocol (Version 1), you should use the ip ssh version command and specify Version 2.

The ip ssh rsa keypair-name command was also introduced in Cisco IOS Release 12.3(4)T so that you can enable an SSH connection using the RSA keys that you have configured. Previously, SSH was linked to the first RSA keys that were generated (that is, SSH was enabled when the first RSA key pair was generated). The behavior still exists, but by using the ip ssh rsa keypair-name command, you can overcome that behavior. If you configure the ip ssh rsa keypair-name command with a key pair name, SSH is enabled if the key pair exists, or SSH will be enabled if the key pair is generated later. If you use this command to enable SSH, you are not forced to configure a hostname and a domain name, which was required in SSH Version 1 of the Cisco IOS software.

Note

The login banner is supported in SSH Version 2, but it is not supported in Secure Shell Version 1.

Secure Shell Version 2 Enhancements

The SSH Version 2 Enhancements feature includes a number of additional capabilities such as supporting VRF-aware SSH, SSH debug enhancements, and Diffie-Hellman (DH) group exchange support.

The Cisco IOS SSH implementation has traditionally used 768-bit modulus, but with an increasing need for higher key sizes to accommodate DH Group 14 (2048 bits) and Group 16 (4096 bits) cryptographic applications a message exchange between the client and the server to establish the favored DH group becomes necessary. The ip ssh dh min sizecommand was introduced in Cisco IOS Release 12.4(20)T so that you can configure the modulus size on the SSH server. In addition to this the sshcommand was extended to add VRF awareness to the SSH client-side functionality through which the VRF instance name in the client is provided with the IP address to look up the correct routing table and establish a connection.

Debugging was enhanced by modifying SSH debug commands. The debug ip ssh command was extended to allow you to simplify the debugging process. Previously, this command printed all debug messages related to SSH regardless of what was specifically required. The behavior still exists, but if you configure the debug ip ssh command with a keyword messages are limited to information specified by the keyword.

Secure Shell Version 2 Enhancements for RSA Keys

Cisco IOS SSH Version 2 (SSHv2) supports keyboard-interactive and password-based authentication methods. The SSHv2 Enhancements for RSA Keys feature also supports RSA-based public key authentication for the client and the server.

User authentication--RSA-based user authentication uses a private/public key pair associated with each user for authentication. The user must generate a private/public key pair on the client and configure a public key on the Cisco IOS SSH server to complete the authentication.

An SSH user trying to establish the credentials provides an encrypted signature using the private key. The signature and the userâs public key are sent to the SSH server for authentication. The SSH server computes a hash over the public key provided by the user. The hash is used to determine if the server has a matching entry. If a match is found, an RSA-based message verification is performed using the public key. Hence, the user is authenticated or denied access based on the encrypted signature.

Server authentication--While establishing an SSH session, the Cisco IOS SSH client authenticates the SSH server by using the server host keys available during the key exchange phase. SSH server keys are used to identify the SSH server. These keys are created at the time of enabling SSH and must be configured on the client.

For server authentication, the Cisco IOS SSH client must assign a host key for each server. When the client tries to establish an SSH session with a server, it receives the signature of the server as part of the key exchange message. If the strict host key checking flag is enabled on the client, the client checks if it has the host key entry corresponding to the server. If a match is found, the client tries to validate the signature using the server host key. If the server is successfully authenticated, the session establishment continues; otherwise it is terminated and displays a âServer Authentication Failedâ message.

Note

Storing public keys on a server uses memory; therefore, the number of public keys configurable on an SSH server is restricted to ten users, with a maximum of two public keys per user.

Note

RSA-based user authentication is supported by the Cisco IOS server, but Cisco IOS clients cannot propose public key as an authentication method. If the Cisco IOS server receives a request from an open SSH client for RSA-based authentication, the server accepts the authentication request.

Note

For server authentication, configure the RSA public key of the server manually and configure the ip ssh stricthostkeycheck command on the Cisco IOS SSH client.

SNMP Trap Generation

Effective with Cisco IOS Release 12.4(17), Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) traps are generated automatically when an SSH session terminates if the traps have been enabled and SNMP debugging has been turned on. For information about enabling SNMP traps, see the Configuring SNMP Support module in the Cisco IOS Network Management Configuration Guide, Release 15.0 .

Note

When you configure the snmp-server host command, the IP address must be the address of the PC that has the SSH (telnet) client and that has IP connectivity to the SSH server. For an example of an SNMP trap generation configuration, see the Example Setting an SNMP Trap.â

You must also turn on SNMP debugging using the debug snmp packet command to display the traps. The trap information includes information such as the number of bytes sent and the protocol that was used for the SSH session. For an example of SNMP debugging, see the Example SNMP Debugging.

SSH Keyboard Interactive Authentication

The SSH Keyboard Interactive Authentication feature, also known as Generic Message Authentication for SSH, is a method that can be used to implement different types of authentication mechanisms. Basically, any currently supported authentication method that requires only user input can be performed with this feature. The feature is automatically enabled.

The following methods are supported:

Password
SecurID and hardware tokens printing a number or a string in response to a challenge sent by the server
Pluggable Authentication Module (PAM)
S/KEY (and other One-Time-Pads)

For examples of various scenarios in which the SSH Keyboard Interactive Authentication feature has been automatically enabled, see the Examples SSH Keyboard Interactive Authentication.

Troubleshooting Tips

Troubleshooting Tips

The ip ssh version command can be used for troubleshooting your SSH configuration. By changing versions, you can determine which SSH version has a problem.

Enabling Secure Copy Protocol on the SSH Server

Perform this task to enable secure copy protocol on the SSH server. This task configures server-side functionality for SCP. This example shows a typical configuration that allows the router to securely copy files from a remote workstation.

Before You Begin

SCP relies on AAA authentication and authorization to function correctly. Therefore AAA must be configured on the router.

SUMMARY STEPS

1. enable

2. configure terminal

3. aaa new-model

4. aaa authentication login default local

5. aaa authorization exec default local

6. username name privilege privilege-level password password

7. ip ssh time-out seconds

8. ip ssh authentication-retries integer

9. ip scp server enable

DETAILED STEPS

Command or Action

Purpose

Step 1

enable

Example:

Router> enable

Enables privileged EXEC mode.

Enter your password if prompted.

Step 2

configure terminal

Example:

Router# configure terminal

Enters global configuration mode.

Step 3

aaa new-model

Example:

Router(config)# aaa new-model

Enables the AAA access control model.

Step 4

aaa authentication login default local

Example:

Router(config)# aaa authentication login default local

Sets AAA authentication at login to use the local username database for authentication.

Step 5

aaa authorization exec default local

Example:

Router(config)# aaa authorization exec default local

Sets the parameters that restrict user access to a network; runs the authorization to determine if the user ID is allowed to run an EXEC shell, and specifies that the system uses the local database for authorization.

Step 6

username name privilege privilege-level password password

Example:

Router(config)# username samplename privilege 15 password password1

Establishes a username-based authentication system, and specifies the username, privilege level, and an unencrypted password.

Note

The minimum value for the privilege-level argument is 15. A privilege level of less than 15 results in the connection closing.

Step 7

ip ssh time-out seconds

Example:

Router(config)# ip ssh time-out 120

Sets the time interval (in seconds) that the router waits for the SSH client to respond.

Step 8

ip ssh authentication-retries integer

Example:

Router(config)# ip ssh authentication-retries 3

Sets the number of authentication attempts after which the interface is reset.

Step 9

ip scp server enable

Example:

Router(config)# ip scp server enable

Enables the router to securely copy files from a remote workstation.
