  • VerifyHostKeyDNS
  • Client ControlMaster
  • Background ssh execution mode
  • VPN forwarding
  • X11 forwarding
  • PKCS based smart cards
  • Host based authentication
  • Authentication forwarding
  • Compression
  • AuthorizedKeysCommand
  • AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand
  • Bind Interface, i.e. ssh -B (note: Bind Address, i.e. ssh -b is supported)

(Windows specific feature/work items)

  • MINGW build support
  • Use MS CNG (instead of OpenSSL)
  • Key management using MS CNG
  • Xterm, VT220 terminal modes

If you are looking for a specific feature not in above list and not in here, feel free to add it issue list.
