APIC-EM

Not applicable

Is it possible to change the default port that the APIC-EM uses to connect to devices via SSH?  I have a customer that doesn't use the default port of 22 and they would like to change this to their unique port.

= The above document seems to indicate that this not possible (search for all instances of '22') ; anyway tell the customer that this does not increase security but decreases it. Any tool , including, CISCO APIC-EM, would have a valid right to not wanting to make a connection to a host/random-port which must be, following internet standards,and port assignments, considered as being forced to make a trust-relation to something that can not be trusted.
