Information in this document applies to any platform.
One might see many logs such as:
Apr 14 08:53:55
among the logs in a Series 7000 NAS Appliance.
The reason for these logs is that there are sshd clients connecting to the 7000 box which are using old sshd ciphers.
Since 7000 boxes do not use old ciphers, a conflict arises and hence the logs. However, the logs are harmless despite their numbers.
Symptoms
One can see messages such as the following in the logs:
Apr 14 08:53:55 <HOSTNAME> sshd[8286]: [ID 800047 auth.crit] fatal: Client and server could not agree on a common cipher: client "aes128-cbc,twofish192-cbc,cast128-cbc,twofish256-cbc,twofish128-cbc,3des-cbc,blowfish-cbc,aes256-cbc,aes192-cbc", server "aes128-ctr,aes192-ctr,aes256-ctr,arcfour128,arcfour256,arcfour". The server cipher list can be controlled using the "Ciphers" option, see sshd_config(4) for more information.
