Introduction

This appendix contains the procedures for establishing a secure telnet connection to the EAGLE using OpenSSH. Perform these procedures.

• If a Windows machine will be used to make the connection, perform these procedures.
  • Install the Windows OpenSSH Software to install the software.
  • Establishing a Secure Telnet Connection to the EAGLE using Windows OpenSSH to establish the connection.
• If a UNIX/Solaris machine will be used to make the connection, perform these procedures.
  • Install the UNIX/Solaris OpenSSH Software to install the software.
  • Establishing a Secure Telnet Connection to the EAGLE using UNIX/Solaris OpenSSH to establish the connection.

Before establishing the secure connection to the EAGLE, the EAGLE needs to be configured with these items.

• IPSMs that are in service and containing IP addresses for each IPSM. The IP router on the IPSM must be configured if the client is using a different subnet.
• The Eagle OA&M Security Enhancement feature must be enabled and turned on.

Enter these commands on the EAGLE to verify the IPSM and feature configuration.

• rtrv-ip-lnk - shows the IP addresses assigned to the IPSM, in the IPADDR column
• rtrv-ip-card - shows the IP router, in the DEFROUTER field.
• rept-stat-card - shows the state of the IPSM, in the PST column
• pass:loc=<IPSM card Location>:cmd="netstat -a" - shows the state of the ports 22 and 23 on the IPSM, in the (state) column. If the IPSM is configured correctly, the state of these ports will be LISTEN.
• rtrv-ctrl-feat - shows whether or not the Eagle OA&M Security Enhancement feature is enabled and turned on.

Perform the Adding an E5-IPSM procedure to configure the IP addresses of the IPSM, the IP router, and to put the IPSM in service. Perform the Activating the EAGLE OA&M IP Security Enhancement Controlled Feature to enable and turn on the Eagle OA&M Security Enhancement feature.
