By default, there are no restrictions on
access for management protocols, including SSH. To allow SSHv2 access to a
RUCKUS ICX device,
you must generate a Crypto Key.
To enable SSH, you must generate an RSA or
ECDSA host key on the device. The SSH server on the ICX device uses this host key,
along
with a dynamically generated server key pair, to negotiate a session key and encryption
method with the client trying to connect to it. The following task generates the
crypto
key to enable SSH. - Enter global configuration mode.
device# configure terminal
- Enter the
crypto key
generate command to generate the crypto key to enable SSH. device(config)# crypto key generate
The following example generates a
client RSA key pair with a modulus size of 2048 bits.
device# configure terminal
device(config)# crypto key generate rsa modulus 2048
The following example generates an elliptical key
pair named testkey with the default size of 384 bits.
device# configure terminal
device(config)# crypto key generate ec label testkey
