How we can login to remote server through ssh?
#ssh user@servername
or
#ssh -l user servername
or
#ssh ip-add
So when you will execute the above command you will get the password prompt. But if you want to see what will happen when you execute ssh command you have to enable verbose or debugging mode. To do this we have to apply -v option at the time of login as shown in below example.
#ssh -v surendra@ftp2.linuxnix.com
root@krishna:/home/surendra# ssh -v surendra_a@ftp2.linuxnix.com

So if you want more verboseness you can use up to 3rd level(-vvv) as shown below
#ssh -vvv surendra_a@ftp2.linuxnix.com
