User Guide for the Avaya P580 and P882 Multiservice Switches, v6.1

Chapter 4

The Avaya Multiservice switch supports Blowfish and 3DES encryption 
ciphers. When the client connects to the host, the client supplies a list of 
ciphers that it supports. The server selects the strongest common cipher. 
You can also configure the Avaya Multiservice switch to force use of a 
single cipher.

The Avaya Multiservice switch supports only password authentication. 
Each login attempt requires a username and password authentication for 
logging onto the switch.You can also use a RADIUS server for remote 
password authentication over a network. User authentication occurs after an 
SSH session is successfully established. 

The switch supports a maximum of seven client and server SSH sessions 
running simultaneously. All connections require password authentication.
