Client Authentication Methods

The Reflection Secure Shell Client supports four methods of user authentication: Kerberos (GSSAPI), Public Key, Keyboard Interactive, and Password. Use the Reflection Secure Shell Settings dialog box to configure your authentication preferences. You must select at least one authentication method. When more than one method is selected, the Secure Shell Client tries to authenticate in the order you specify. By default, Reflection attempts Public Key authentication first, followed by Keyboard Interactive, and then Password.

note

The Public Key and GSSAPI / Kerberos V5 authentication methods require both server and client configuration.
