1-20After execution of this command, the system automatically transforms the public key file into PKCSformat, and imports the peer public key. This requires that you get a copy of the public key file from thepeer through FTP/TFTP.z Only public key files in the format of SSH1 or SSH2 are supported.z Currently, only public keys with the modulues being in the range 512 to 2048 bits can be importedto the switch.z You may use this command to configure an SSH peer’s public key on the current switch. After youissue this command, the system will automatically identify the format of the public key, transformsthe public key into the PKCS format, and saves the public key locally. This public key configurationmethod requires that the public key file be uploaded to the current switch through FTP or TFTP.Examples# Transform the format of client public key file abc and configure a public key named 123. system-viewSystem View: return to User View with Ctrl+Z.[Sysname] rsa peer-public-key 123 import sshkey abcssh authentication-type defaultSyntaxssh authentication-type default { all | password | password-publickey | publickey | rsa }undo ssh authentication-type defaultViewSystem viewParametersall: Specifies either the password authentication or the publickey authentication for SSH users.password: Specifies the authentication mode for SSH users as password authentication.password-publickey: Specifies that both the password and the publickey must be authenticated forSSH users.publickey: Specifies the authentication mode for the SSH user as publickey authentication.rsa: Specifies the authentication mode for the SSH user as publickey authentication. The authenticationmodes specified by the rsa keyword and publickey keyword are implemented in the same way.DescriptionUse the ssh authentication-type default command to specify a default authentication mode for SSHusers. After this command is configured, when an SSH user is added by using the ssh user command,the default authentication mode is adopted for the user if no authentication mode is specified by usingthe ssh user authentication-type command.
