Usage Guidelines

You can use the show ip client-pub-key command to display the currently loaded public keys.

SSH clients that support DSA or RSA authentication normally provide a utility to generate a DSA or RSA key pair. The private key is normally stored in a password-protected file on the local host; the public key is stored in another file and is not protected. You must import the client public key for each client into the RUCKUS device.

The no form of the command removes the imported public keys.

Examples

The following example imports a public key file from the TFTP server 192.168.10.1.

The following example removes a public key file from the device. 

device(confg)# ip ssh pub-key-file remove pkeys.txt
