If you right-click on a device on the Topology Map, or in the Topology device list, one of the options will be SSH. It requires a bit of client-side configuration. See http://server/help/CMcore/CmHelp/Topo_ConnectSecDeviceClient.html on your server for details.

Device Center cannot support SSH in its current form. The problem is that most browsers do not support an ssh:// protocol handler like they do with telnet://. Campus Manager can launch SSH since it uses client-sided Java, and has more dynamic control over what is launched and with what arguments.

How do i launch SSH through Campus Manager? because once in campus manager when i open a device it takes me to device center.
