Enter system view system-view —
Import the RSA public key from
a public key file rsa peer-public-key keyname
import sshkey filename Required
The result of the display rsa local-key-pair public command or the public key converted with the
SSHKEY tool contains no information such as the authentication type, so they cannot be directly used
as parameters in the public-key peer command. For the same reason, neither can the result of the
display public-key local rsa public command be used in the rsa peer-public-key command directly.
This configuration task is unnecessary if the SSH user’s authentication mode is password.
For the publickey authentication mode, you must specify the client’s public key on the server for
authentication.
Follow these steps to assign a public key for an SSH user:
To do… Use the command… Remarks
