USER’S GUIDE

®

•An SSH host key that your SSH client program uses to authenticate the Management Card in the Battery Management System master controller when you log on to the control console interface.

All public keys for SSL certificates and all host keys for SSH that are created with the APC Security Wizard are 1024-bit RSA keys. If you do not create and use SSL server

certificates and SSH host keys with the APC Security Wizard, the Management Card generates 768-bit RSA keys.

Only APC server management and key management products can use server certificates, host keys, and CA root certificates created by the APC Security Wizard. These files will not work with products such as OpenSSL® and Microsoft IIS.
