Brocade Communications Systems 6650 manual Importing a digital certificate using SCP

Secure copy with SSH2

NOTE

The Brocade device supports only one SCP copy session at a time.

Importing a digital certificate using SCP

To import a digital certificate using SCP, enter a command such as the following one:

C:\> scp certfile user@192.168.89.210:sslCert

Syntax: scp certificate-filename user@ip-address:sslCert.

The ip-addressvariable is the IP address of the server from which the digital certificate file is downloaded.

The certificate-filenamevariable is the file name of the digital certificate that you are importing to the device.

The scp command can be used when TFTP access is unavailable or not permitted and the command has an equivalent functionality to the ip ssl certificate-data-file tftp. For more information on the ip ssl certificate-data-file tftp command, refer to “Importing digital certificates and RSA private key files” on page 27.

Importing an RSA private key

To import an RSA private key from a client using SCP, enter a command such as the following one:

C:\> scp keyfile user@192.168.9.210:sslPrivKey

Syntax: scp key-filename user@ip-address: sslPrivKey

The ip-addressvariable is the IP address of the server that contains the private key file.

The key-filenamevariable is the file name of the private key that you want to import into the device.

The scp command can be used when TFTP access is unavailable or not permitted and the command has an equivalent functionality to the ip ssl private-key-file tftp command. For more information on the ip ssl private-key-file tftp command, refer to “Importing digital certificates and RSA private key files” on page 27.

Importing a DSA or RSA public key

To import a DSA or RSA public key from a client using SCP, enter a command such as the following one:

C:\> scp pkeys.txt user@192.168.1.234:sshPubKey

Syntax: scp key-filename user@ip-address:sshPubKey

The ip-addressvariable is the IP address of the server that contains the public key file.

The key-filenamevariable is the name of the DSA or RSA public key file that you want to import into the device.
