Device Center

How can I add the SSH option to the tools in Device Center?

[Joe Clarke]

This question is asked a lot, and it cannot be done. We use the telnet:// URL in Device Center which most (if not all) browsers support. Most browsers do not support an ssh:// handler. As Device Center is written (not using any client-sided Java) adding an SSH launch point is not possible.

The feature has been raised internally, and it may be something we implement in a future release.

Is there any other location within LMS I can launch an SSH session?

[Joe Clarke]

Yes. You can launch SSH sessions from within Campus Manager's Topology Services. Consult the Campus Manager online help on how to setup the CMSSH variable for your version of Campus Manager. CMSSH tells Campus Manager the path to your SSH client.
