If you do not generate the SSH host keys at this stage, generate them later when you configure the system (see “Configuring Nortel SNAS 4050 host SSH keys using the CLI” on page 485 or “Configuring Nortel SNAS 4050 host SSH keys using the SREM” on page 548).

For communication between the Nortel SNAS 4050 and the network access devices, generate the SSH key after you have completed the initial setup (see “Managing SSH keys using the CLI” on page 84 or “Managing SSH keys using the SREM” on page 102).
