What is the difference between Telnet and SSH?..

Answer / soubhik das

Telnet is a protocol carried by tcp at port number 23 to access or get in to the network devices. But it is not secure. Password and username are in plane text mode. But we can encrypt manually by a command. In global configuration mode-" password encryption-address"

SSH- it is a secure shell where user can securely access to the network device. It also carried by Tcp at port no 22.
It send data in encrypted form(ASCII) by using RSA algorithm( using public and private key). For that SSL is required.
