SSH Daemon Configuration: Parameters

Included in All Checkmk editions
Source Code License Open Source
Supported Agents Linux
This check monitors security-relevant parameters of the effective SSH daemon configuration (sshd -T/-G). Note that this explicity excludes context-specific configurations defined via Match directives. Hence, as an example, even if this service reports that password authentication is off, this does not garantuee that no user can ssh into the system using a password.

Expected values for the relevant parameters can be configured using the associated WATO rule.

For this check the agent plug-in mk_sshd_config needs to be installed.
