Can less secure ciphers be removed?
Applies to
- ONTAP 9
- SSH
Answer
- Yes, it is possible to remove one or more ciphers presented by the ssh server present in Ontap
- Further information can be found in the Ontap 9 Documentation center
Additional Information
- An ssh server will provide a list of supported ciphers during initial protocol negotiation
- The client will have, as well, a list of internally supported ciphers
- If there is no common cipher present in both lists then access will fail with error "no matching cipher found"
