Summary

This procedure is optional. If you select SSH encryption, but do not create a host key, the Network Management Card generates a 768-bit RSA key when it reboots. Host keys for SSH that are created with the APC Security Wizard are 1024-bit RSA keys.

Use the APC Security Wizard to create a host key, which is encrypted and stored in a file with .p15 extension.

Load the host key onto the Network Management Card.
