### Describe your issue

Hi all,

I want to change the SSH Port from CLI via the command `yunohost settings set security.ssh.port -v <new_ssh_port_number>` but I get the following error:  
Der Filterschlüssel ‘(‘security’, ‘ssh’, ‘port’)’ ist inkorrekt.  
Is there any changes with the new 12.x Version from YunoHost?

Thanks for your help

```auto
yunohost settings get security.ssh
[...]
security.ssh.ssh_port: 
  ask: SSH port
  value: 22. T
[...]

```

Never used this before so I can’t say if the name changed changed, but this works:

`yunohost settings set security.ssh.ssh_port -v <port>`
