To configure the clients available for this outbound SSH connection, list each client with a separate address statement at the [edit system services outbound-ssh client client-id] hierarchy level:
- [edit system services outbound-ssh client client-id]
-
- address {
- retry number;
- timeout seconds;
- port port-number;
- }
The address statement is the IP address or host name of the client.
The timeout statement specifies how long the application waits between attempts to reconnect to the specified IP address, in seconds. The default is 15 seconds.
The retry statement specifies how many connection attempts a router can make to to the specified IP address. The default is 3.
The port statement specifies the port at which a server listens for outbound SSH connection requests.
