3.10.2.1.13 Keychain Authentication Commands
keychain
Syntax [no] keychain keychain-name
Context config>system>security
Description This command enables the context to configure keychain parameters that are used to
authenticate protocol communications. A keychain must be configured on the system before

keychain context. If the keychain is associated with a protocol when the no keychain
command is entered, the command will be rejected and an error indicating that the keychain
is in use will be displayed.
