When using SSH's slogin (instead of rlogin) the entire login session, including 
transmission of 
password
, is encrypted; therefore it is almost impossible for an 
outsider to collect passwords. When SSH is enabled, MicroRed will respond to 
SSH connection requests. 
To configure SSH, select the SSH tab the Services tab. Configure the SSH tab

SSH Enable 
Select the SSH Enable checkbox to enable SSH
