Configuration procedure
NOTE:
During SFTP server configuration, the client public key is required. Use the client software to generate
RSA key pairs on the client before you configure the SFTP server.
1.
Configure the SFTP client.
# Create VLAN-interface 1 and assign an IP address to it.
<SwitchA> system-view
[SwitchA] interface vlan-interface 1
[SwitchA-Vlan-interface1] ip address 192.168.0.2 255.255.255.0
[SwitchA-Vlan-interface1] quit
# Generate the RSA key pairs.
[SwitchA] public-key local create rsa
The range of public key size is (512 ~ 2048).
NOTES: If the key modulus is greater than 512,
It will take a few minutes.
Press CTRL+C to abort.
Input the bits of the modulus[default = 1024]:

.
[SwitchA] public-key local export rsa ssh2 pubkey
[SwitchA] quit
Then, transmit the public key file to the server through FTP or TFTP.
2.
Configure the SFTP server.
# Generate the RSA key pairs.
<SwitchB> system-view
[SwitchB] public-key local create rsa
The range of public key size is (512 ~ 2048).
