Change the SSH port between Server and Client

Download the scripts from these links:

https://dl.medulla-tech.io/nc/change_ssh_port_on_agent.py

https://dl.medulla-tech.io/nc/change_ssh_port_on_server.py

chmod +x change_ssh_port_on_agent.py

chmod +x change_ssh_port_on_server.py

To view the script options:

./change_ssh_port_on_agent.py --help

./change_ssh_port_on_server.py --help

You must change the port using both scripts

The port must be the same in both scripts

Change the port on the server

To change port 22 to port 2002, here is an example of how to use the command:

./change_ssh_port_on_agent.py --new-ssh-port 2002

./change_ssh_port_on_server.py --new-ssh-port 2002

The agent will be regenerated after running the "change_ssh_port_on_agent.py" script; you must then redeploy the agent to your workstations.
