www.dell.com | support.dell.com User Guidelines If encryption keys are not generated, the SSH server is in standby until the keys are generated. To generate SSH server keys, use the commands crypto key generate rsa, and crypto key generate dsa. Example The following example enables the device to be configured from a SSH server. Console (config)# ip ssh server crypto key generate dsa The ip ssh server global configuration command generates DSA key pairs. Syntax crypto key generate dsa Default Configuration DSA key pairs do not exist. Command Mode Global Configuration mode User Guidelines When upgrading from previous version (00.01.64) of PowerConnect 6024/6024F to the current version, you may need to create a new certificate. DSA keys are generated in pairs: one public DSA key and one private DSA key. If the device already has DSA keys, a warning and prompt to replace the existing keys with new keys is displayed. The maximum supported size for the DSA key is 1,024. This command is not saved in the startup configuration; however, the keys generated by this command are saved in the running configuration, which is never displayed to the user or backed up to another device. This command may take a considerable period of time to execute. Example The following example generates DSA key pairs. Console (config)# crypto key generate dsa crypto key generate rsa The crypto key generate rsa global configuration command generates RSA key pairs. 402 SSH Commands
