On a machine where you do not have those rights, which is the normal case for a
managed workstation, you cannot enable the SSH server yourself: an administrator
has to run the command, or push
[`allowServerSSH`](/client/mdm-integration#policy-keys-reference) through MDM,
which the client applies itself and so needs nothing from you. A switch that is
already on stays operable, because turning these settings off never requires
privileges.
has to run the command. For the SSH server itself there is also
[`allowServerSSH`](/client/mdm-integration#policy-keys-reference), which the client
applies from MDM policy and so needs nothing from you; root login and SSH
authentication have no policy key and must be set on the machine. A switch already in its safe
state stays operable: you can turn the SSH server off, turn root login off, or
re-enable SSH authentication without privileges. Only the change that could hand out
a shell needs them.
