This is a config file for the ssh client, i.e. the "ssh" command.
As such it's read every time you run ssh and you do not need to
reboot the system after changing its configuration.

Also, the file you mention is the system-wide configuration file,
but the change can also be made on a per-user basis by editing
~/.ssh/config.

Cheers,
Andy
