Manually specifying the peer public key on the local device
Network requirements
As shown in Figure 43, to prevent illegal access, Device B (the local device) authenticates Device A (the
peer device) through a digital signature. Before you configure authentication parameters on Device B,
configure the public key of Device A on Device B.
• Configure Device B to use the asymmetric key algorithm of RSA to authenticate Device A.
• Manually specify the host public key of Device A's public key pair on Device B.
