Linux SSH default port 22

Linux is now widely used in many industries, and Linux systems are becoming more and more popular in all walks of life. As a result, many people begin to learn Linux, you may encounter the default port 22 of Linux SSH. Here we will introduce how to modify the default port 22 of Linux SSH.

NO 1:

01 if you want to change SSH's default Port 22), you only need to modify Port 22 in/etc/ssh/sshd_config. Here, change 22 to the Port you want to set, but do not set the same port as the existing port to avoid unknown consequences.

02 if you want to restrict the SSH Login IP address, you can do the following:

First: Modify/etc/hosts. deny and add sshd: ALL

Then, modify:/etc/hosts. allow and set sshd: 192.168.0.241 as follows:

In this way, only the IP address 192.168.0.241 can be bound to log on to the LINUX machine through SSH. Of course, as a server, I do not install gnome or KDE, and many things do not, which increases the security factor.

NO 2:

First, modify the configuration file.

Vi/etc/ssh/sshd_config

Find the section # Port 22, which indicates that Port 22 is used by default and changed to the following:

Port 22

Port 999

Save and exit

Run/etc/init. d/sshd restart

In this way, the SSH port will work on both 22 and 999.

Now edit the firewall configuration: vi/etc/sysconfig/iptables

Port 999 is enabled.

Run/etc/init. d/iptables restart

Now, use the ssh tool to connect to port 999 to test whether the connection is successful. If the connection is successful, edit the settings of sshd_config again and delete Port22.

The reason for setting two ports first and then disabling one after the test is successful is to prevent unknown situations such as disconnection, network disconnection, and misoperation during the conf modification process, you can also connect to the debugging through another port to avoid the need to send people to the data center if the connection fails, making the problem more complicated and troublesome.

The above is how to modify the default port 22 of Linux SSH.
