1. Start by updating the system:

1. Open the terminal in CentOS 7.
2. Install the openssh–server package by running the command: sudo yum install openssh–server.
3. Start the ssh service with the command sudo systemctl start sshd.
4. Enable the ssh service to run at boot time with the command sudo systemctl enable sshd.
5. By default, the ssh port should be set to 22. To check this, use the command sudo grep ‘^Port’ /etc/ssh/sshd_config. If the port is something else, change it to 22 in the sshd_config file.
6. If you want to further secure your server from malicious logins, you can configure additional parameters in sshd_config.
7. Finally, restart the ssh service with the command sudo systemctl restart sshd.
