Usage Guidelines

An SSH client can log in successfully with no port specified only when the server is monitoring port 22. If the server is monitoring another port, the port number must be specified upon login.

The ssh server port command changes the IPv4/IPv6 port number that an SSH server monitors.

After the monitoring port number is changed, all connections are disconnected and the server starts to monitor new port numbers.

Example

# Set the monitoring port number of the SSH server to 1025.
