Entering a peer host public key
Before you perform this task, make sure you have displayed the key on the peer device and recorded
the key. For information about displaying a host public key, see "
Use the
display public-key local public
command to display the public key on the peer device. The
format of the public key displayed in any other way might be incorrect. If the key is not in the correct
format, the system discards the key and displays an error message. If the key is valid, the system
saves the key.
Always import rather than enter the peer host public key if you are not sure whether the device
supports the format of the recorded peer host public key.
