The INFO HOST-KEY provides detailed information about the host key that is stored in the HOSTKEY file: name of
the hostkey file, type of key and the key’s fingerprints (bubble-babble and MD5).
The command has the following syntax:
INFO HOST-KEY
All users with SSHCOM access can execute this command.
Example:
% info host-key
info host-key
HOSTKEY-FILE HOSTKEY
TYPE ssh-dss
PUBLICKEY-FINGERPRINT
MD5: 23:42:77:e1:20:51:ff:55:e7:4c:7a:c8:71:30:06:93
BABBLE: xuseb-mofen-sisuh-zogun-cehuz-pomaz-vuzuf-tabup-lodoz-lured-ruxix
%
The MD5 fingerprint is logged at SSH2 process startup as well.
The fingerprint information can be used to configure a known host entry on a remote system.
EXPORT HOST-KEY
The EXPORT HOST-KEY command will export the public key part of the host key that is stored in the HOSTKEY file.
The command has the following syntax:
EXPORT HOST-KEY, FILE {<GUARDIAN-file-name> | "<OSS-file-name>" | <OSS-file-name> }
The individual attributes have the following meaning and syntax:
FILE {<GUARDIAN-file-name> | "<OSS-file-name>" | <OSS-file-name> }
The name of the Guardian or OSS file that will hold the exported key. A file created in the Guardian name
space will be a file with file code 180. If an OSS file name is specified that contains spaces (or commas), then
double quotes are required for the attribute value.
All users with SSHCOM access can execute this command.
Example:
% export host-key, file $temp.sshtemp.hostkey1
export host-key, file $temp.sshtemp.hostkey1
OK, written public part of host key to file $temp.sshtemp.hostkey1
%
The exported file can be used to configure a known host entry on a remote system.
