Configuring Secure Shell (SSH)

Further Information on SSH Client Public-Key Authentication

 

Syntax: aaa authentication ssh login public-key none

 

Allows SSH client access only if the switch detects a match

 

between the client’s public key and an entry in the client-

 

public-key file most recently copied into the switch.

 

 

Caution

To enable client public-key authentication to block SSH clients whose public

 

keys are not in the client-public-key file copied into the switch, you must

 

configure the Login Secondary as none. Otherwise, the switch allows such

 

clients to attempt access using the switch’s Operator password.
