Command Mode Privileged Exec Command Usage • This command stores the host key pair in memory (i.e., RAM). Use the ip ssh save host-key command to save the host key pair to flash memory. • Some SSH client programs automatically add the public key to the known hosts file as part of the configuration process. Otherwise, you must manually create a known hosts file and place the host public key in it. • The SSH server uses this host key to negotiate a session key and encryption method with the client trying to connect to it.
