Required
In this command, you can also specify
the preferred key exchange algorithm,
encryption algorithms and HMAC
algorithms between the server and
client.
HMAC: Hash-based message
authentication code
Note that:
The
identity-key
keyword is
unnecessary in password
authentication and optional in public
key authentication.
When logging into the SSH server using public key authentication, an SSH client needs to read its local
private key for authentication. As two algorithms (RSA or DSA) are available, the
identity-key
keyword
must be used to specify one algorithm in order to get the correct private key.

Comparison of SSH Commands with the Same Functions
After the SSH protocol supports the DSA asymmetric key algorithm, some SSH configuration
commands are changed. For the sake of SSH configuration compatibility, the original commands are
still supported.
Table 1-18
lists both the original commands and current commands.
