We’re happy to announce that we have added the aes128-gcm and aes256-gcm Ciphers to the latest build of Xshell. So if you’re server requires either of these encryption types, you can now access those servers with Xshell.
Note: Users updating to Xshell Build 0788 and Xmanager Enterprise Build 0769 from previous Builds will need to manually add these two Ciphers into the Cipher list.
You can access these Ciphers through the Security category within sessions properties. Click the Edit button next to the drop down Cipher list.
Check the “aes128-gcm@openssh.com” and “aes256-gcm@openssh.com” boxes to add them into the Cipher list.
Now you’ll see the two Ciphers as available encryption methods when selecting your encryption type.
