Configuring SSH Management Sessions Chapter 2 Enabling Remote Access to the ACE The syntax of this command is: telnet maxsessions max_sessions The max_sessions argument sets the maximum number of concurrent Telnet sessions allowed for the associated context. The range is from 1 to 16 Telnet sessions for the Admin context and from 1 to 4 Telnet sessions for each user context. The defaults are 16 (Admin context) and 4 (user context). For example, to configure the maximum number of concurrent Telnet sessions to 3 in the Admin context, enter: host1/Admin(config)# telnet maxsessions 3 To revert to the default of 16 Telnet sessions for the Admin context, enter: host1/Admin(config)# no telnet maxsessions Configuring SSH Management Sessions This section includes the following topics: • Configuring Maximum Number of SSH Sessions • Generating SSH Host Key Pairs SSH remote access sessions are established on the ACE per context. You can create a context, assign an interface and IP address to it, and then log into the ACE by using SSH to connect to that IP address. This capability allows you to specify a particular context when accessing the ACE. For details on creating users and contexts, see the Cisco 4700 Series Application Control Engine Appliance Virtualization Configuration Guide. Configuring Maximum Number of SSH Sessions The ACE supports a maximum of 16 concurrent SSH management sessions for the Admin context and 4 concurrent SSH management sessions for each user context. To control the maximum number of SSH sessions allowed for each context, use the ssh maxsessions command in configuration mode. The ACE supports a total maximum of 256 concurrent SSH sessions. 2-16 Cisco 4700 Series Application Control Engine Appliance Administration Guide OL-11157-01
