7. Forwarding Access to an Agent

Cette page resume la section correspondante du RFC 9987 et conserve les numeros, noms de messages et exigences de securite du protocole agent SSH.

Agent access may be forwarded over an SSH connection using [RFC4254]. Support may be advertised with agent-forward in SSH_MSG_EXT_INFO. Many deployed implementations use the pre-standardization names [email protected] and [email protected].

A client requests forwarding with a channel request named agent-req or [email protected]. The server opens agent connections using channel type agent-connect or [email protected]. SSH clients SHOULD handle multiple concurrent forwarded connections and MUST refuse unauthorized agent connection requests.
