Using the Secure Shell Client (ssh2)

The basic Secure Shell client program is called ssh2.

Ssh2 can be used either to initiate an interactive session, resembling rlogin, or to execute a command in a way similar to the rsh command.

The Secure Shell client connects to the server on port 22, which is a well-known port for Secure Shell.
