client001@192.168.1.40's password:
After you enter the correct password, you successfully log in to Switch B.
If the client does not have the server's host public key, the system will notify you to confirm
the further access when you access the server. Select Yes to access the server and
download the server's host public key.
<SwitchA> ssh2 192.168.1.40
Username: client001
The server is not authenticated. Continue? [Y/N]:y
Do you want to save the server public key? [Y/N]:y
client001@192.168.1.40's password:
After you enter the correct password, you can access Switch B successfully. At the next
connection attempt, the client authenticates the server by using the saved server's host
public key on the client.

As shown in
the DSA public key algorithm.
Establish an Stelnet connection between Switch A and Switch B, so you can log in to Switch B to
manage configurations.

Configuration procedure
In the server configuration, the client's host public key is required. Generate a DSA key pair on the
client before configuring the Stelnet server.
1. Configure the Stelnet client:
# Assign an IP address to VLAN-interface 2.
<SwitchA> system-view
[SwitchA] interface vlan-interface 2
[SwitchA-Vlan-interface2] ip address 192.168.1.56 255.255.255.0
[SwitchA-Vlan-interface2] quit
