Change the port statement in /etc/ssh/sshd_config and restart sshd
Alternatively, you can make a port direction on your firewall, say, from TCP port 1234 to internal IP 22. Then, you don't need to change the server config.
One thing to consider: an attacker with a clue will scan your system with something like nmap, and find whatever port you've opened for it.
Btw, you *have* made sure that only protocol 2 is enabled for ssh, right?
