Configuring Secure Shell (SSH)
Configuring the Switch for SSH Operation
To Generate or Erase the Switch’s Public/Private RSA Host Key Pair.
Because the host key pair is stored in flash instead of the running-config file,
it is not necessary to use write memory to save the key pair. Erasing the key
pair automatically disables SSH.
Syntax: crypto key generate ssh [rsa]
Generates a public/private key pair for the switch. If a
switch key pair already exists, replaces it with a new
key pair. (See the Note, above.)
crypto key zeroize ssh [rsa]
Erases the switch’s public/private key pair and dis-
ables SSH operation.
show crypto host-public-key
Displays switch’s public key. Displays the version 1
and version 2 views of the key.
[ babble ]
Displays hashes of the switch’s public key in
phonetic format. (See “Displaying the Public
Key” on page 6-14.)
[ fingerprint ]
Displays fingerprints of the switch’s public key
in hexadecimal format. (See “Displaying the
Public Key” on page 6-14.)
