Original Text
-------------
   This document also recommends that SSH servers be configurable to
   allow access to the "netconf" SSH subsystem over other ports.  Use of
   that configuration option without corresponding changes to firewall
   or network device configuration may unintentionally result in the
   ability for nodes outside of the firewall or other administrative
   boundaries to gain access to the "netconf" SSH subsystem.
