RAX120 SSH access

Question

Hi all, I have a RAX120v1 with last firmware installed ( v1.2.9.52 )

I was able to enable the telnet port so I can logn into the router via telnet terminal on port 23

My question is: being connected into the router via telnet do someone know which linux command I can use to enable the port 22 SSH connection?

I don't even know if an ssh server is active / running on the RAX120 so it's just a matter to somehow enable the firewall to let me use the SSH on port 22 or instead is not possible?

Most likely not possible. SSH may required special keys that are not made public for security reasons.&nbsp;

What other NG router model was this?&nbsp;
&nbsp;
NG removed Telnet access support from most of there newer versions of FW. Though I presume one may have found alternative means to enable telnet access.&nbsp;
