SSH Protocol Support
The Network Simulator supports SSH protocol for the CLI devices
in the device tree of the network simulator. You can also create
your own CLI devices with SSH support. The ssh devices can be
created with both IPv4 and Ipv6 addresses. It enables execution
of ssh commands on the simulated devices, from command line. To
communicate with the simulated devices through ssh, you must log
in to ssh by entering a valid user name and password (root,
public are username, password used by default).
Create a new network using the Linux template devices. To create a new network, refer to Network Simulator Guide -> Creating a New Network. (or) Define your own CLI devices in the device tree. Create a new network using the template devices. To create a new network, refer to Network Simulator Guide -> Creating a New Network.The Network Simulator supports dynamic configuration of virtual ip addresses in Windows XP/Vista and Linux OS. The IPv6 addresses can be configured dynamically in Windows XP+SP2/Vista and Linux OS.
Right-click on the device
in the network area and select the option SSH -> Start. This will automatically start the agent
with the given IPv4/IPv6 address and at default port 2222.
To establish a SSH connection with the agent, go to command prompt and type: c:\> ssh -p <port number> -l <user name> <ip address>. Type the user name and password as root and public respectively.
