Syntax 1

create enco key=key-idtype=rsa length=value [description=”description”]

Syntax 2

create enco key=key-idtype=rsa

[description=”description”] [file=filename.key] [format=hexsshssh2]

Parameters
key	Specifies a key ID. The range is 0 to 65,535. The
	default is 0. When creating a new key this value must
	be unique from all other key IDs on the switch.
type	Specifies the type of key, which can only be a
	random RSA key.
length	Specifies the length of the key in bits. The range is
	512 to 1536 bits, in increments of 256 bits (for
	example, 512, 768, 1024, etc). The default is 512 bits.
	This parameter is only used when creating a new
	encryption key pair.
description	Specifies a description for the encryption key. The
	description can be up to 40 alphanumeric
	characters. Spaces are allowed. The description must
	be enclosed in quotes. This parameter, which is
	optional, is used when creating a new key pair and
	when importing a public key from the AT-S62 file
	system to the key database. This parameter should
	not be used when exporting a public key to the file
	system.
file	Specifies a filename for the key. The filename must
	include the “.key” extension. This parameter is used
	when you are importing or exporting a public key
	from the key database. This parameter is not used
