Note

Starting with ExtremeXOS 21.1, Secure Shell 2 (SSH2) is no longer provided as a feature pack. It is incorporated into the main ExtremeXOS software image and is no longer provided as an XMOD. However, SSH2 contains strong encryption algorithms that heighten the export controls required in the US and other countries. When downloading the ExtremeXOS software image, you are required to verify that you meet the export clearance requirements. For more information, see Software Upgrade and Boot Options in the ExtremeXOS 30.4 User Guide.

For more information on SSH2, see Using Secure Shell 2 in the ExtremeXOS 30.4 User Guide.
