Using the Scripts to Create SSH
Keys for ROS
The generation of SSH keys is a single step process.
NOTE
For information on how to regenerate SSH keys for ROX, refer to the ROX User Guide for the device.
1. Navigate to the RCKeyGen folder on the script machine and open the file device_data.txt in a text
editor.
2. Replace the current content with a list of addresses (one per line) for devices for which SSH keys are to be
generated. The script can take both IP addresses and DNS names. The list must have some addresses for
the script to generate keys.
3. Save and close the file.
NOTE
For Windows XP, scripts should be launched through the command prompt in the same order as
described in this procedure.
4. Double-click the script 4_ssh_keygen.vbs . The keys are generated and saved in the SSH_keys folder.
5. The keys are now available for upload in the SSH_keys folder.
6. Upload the keys to their respective ROS devices. For more information about uploading the keys, refer to the
latest ROS User Guide for your device.
