Specifying the peer public key on the local device
In SSH, to enable the local device to authenticate a peer device, specify the peer public key on the local
device. The device supports up to 20 peer public keys.
For information about displaying or exporting the host public key, see "

Use one of the following methods to specify the peer public key on the local device:
Method Prerequisites
Remarks
Import the public key from a
public key file (recommended)
1.
Save the host public key of
the intended asymmetric key
pair in a file.
2.
Transfer a copy of the file
through FTP or TFTP in binary
mode to the local device.
During the import process, the
system automatically converts the
public key to a string in PKCS
format.
Manually configure the public
key
—
enter or copy the key data
•
Display and record the public
key of the intended
asymmetric key pair.
•
If the peer device is an HP
device, use the
display public-
key local public
command to
view and record its public
key. A public key displayed
by other methods for the HP
device may not be in a correct
format.
•
The recorded public key must
be in the correct format, or the
manual configuration of a
format-incompliant public key
fails.
•
Always use the first method if
you are not sure about the
format of the recorded public
key.
