SSH stands for Secure Shell. In general, SSH is a protocol that provides remote access to multiple devices connected within the same network.
In order to start using SSH, the OpenSSH needs to be installed in the device. Once it is installed the connection can be created using the command ssh user@desired_IP_address -port_number
Generating SSH Keys
The command ssh-keygen is used to generate the SSH keys of one’s device.
The data transfer rate using SSH is very slow; the data are transferred in kilobytes per second.
