SSH v1/v2 keys:
MTS200 can be configured and monitored using console based configuration utility. This utility can be
executed through SSH communication mode with MTS200. MTS200 supports SSHv1 and SSHv2
protocol. SSHv1 key is based on RSA key with 768 / 1024 / 2048 bits for key generation while SSHv2
uses DSA key of fix 1024 bits and RSA key with 768 / 1024 / 2048 bits for key generation. It is
recommended to use 2048 bits RSA key sized because 2048 bits is considered more robust
authentication key size for SSH communications.
MTS200 webserver mode allows configuring and generating SSH v1 and v2 keys. Also, user can view
SSH key contents. After selecting SSH key bits size, click
on “Generate SSH Key” will start generating the
SSH v1 and v2 keys.
Generating SSH key process will take some while and while generating keys, background will be
disabled. Once keys are generated, users need to select “Save” option to save the new keys and delete
old keys.
Using “View SSH key” user can view the generated SSH keys or previous SSH keys as shown in below
figure. The pop up window will appear and display SSH v1 and v2 keys in pop up window.
