If I'm not mistaken, openssh is installed by default in Red Hat 7.

The client is simply called ssh and will negotiate which protocol to
use with the server automatically.  If you wish to force protocol 1
(ssh1) to be used instead of ssh2, you can use the protocol option as
follows:

    ssh -o 'Protocol 1' ...

Of course this sort of thing might be best placed in either your
~/.ssh/config file or in the global config file /etc/ssh/ssh_config.
You might want to try using this option as follows:

	Protocol 1,2

This says to try protocol 1 and then protocol 2.  (The default is
the other way around.)
