    Release Information

    Statement introduced in Junos OS Release 10.0.

    Description

    Configure the TCP port used for NETCONF-over-SSH connections.

    • The configured port accepts only NETCONF-over-SSH connections. Regular SSH session requests for this port are rejected.
    • The default SSH port (22) continues to accept NETCONF sessions even with a configured NETCONF server port. To disable the SSH port from accepting NETCONF sessions, you can specify this in the login event script.
    • We do not recommend configuring the default ports for FTP (21) and Telnet (23) services for configuring NETCONF-over-SSH connections.
