ACE -- SSH probe

[momolove1]

Hello,

We are trying to configure an SSH probe.

I've tried creating a TCP port which checks for port 22, but I want to go further and get the probe to actually log on.

I noticed that only HTTP probes have an option to configure credentials. 

Is there a way that I can configure a probe on the ACE to do this without having to create a script?

Thanks.

Hi Michelle,

There is no SSH probe out of the box.

The only way I would (maybe) see this working is to set it up through a scripted probe.

Thank you for your response. I thought so.

I'm not very familiar with TCL scripting. I found some examples for SSH but non of them seem to actually authenticate with the box... How would you send the username/password using the script?

Thanks again.

Hi Michelle,

If you manage to have a TCL script that connects through SSH, you can pass the username and password through arguments of the scripted probe and those arguments could be use to login.

Now how can you use TCL to login through SSH, I'm sorry but I don't know.

Regards,

Nicolas
