Enabling Remote Access to the ACE
Detailed Steps
Command
Step 1
changeto Admin
Example:
host1/context3# changeto Admin
host1/Admin#
Step 2
config
Example:
host1/Admin# config
host1/Admin(config)#
Step 3
hostname name
Example:
host1/Admin(config)# hostname host1
host1/Admin(config)#
Step 4
ssh key {dsa | rsa | rsa1} [ bits [force]]
Example:
host1/Admin(config)# ssh key rsa1 1024
no ssh key {dsa | rsa | rsa1}
Example:
host1/Admin(config)# no ssh key rsa1
Step 5
do show ssh key [dsa | rsa | rsa1]
Example:
host1/Admin(config)# do show ssh key rsa

Purpose
(Optional) Changes to the Admin context.
If you are the administrator or another user authorized in the
Admin context, use this command in Exec mode to move to the
Admin context. An administrator can perform all allowable
functions within the Admin context.
Enters global configuration mode.
Sets the hostname. This setting is used in the generation of the
key.
The name argument specifies a new hostname for the ACE. Enter
a case-sensitive text string that contains from 1 to 32
alphanumeric characters.
For more information about setting the host name, see the
"Assigning a Name to the ACE" section on page
Generates the SSH private key and the corresponding public key.
The arguments, keywords, and options are as follows:
dsa—Generates the DSA key pair for the SSH version 2
•
protocol.
rsa—Generates the RSA key pair for the SSH version 2
•
protocol.
rsa1—Generates the RSA1 key pair for the SSH version 1
•
protocol.
bits—(Optional) Number of bits for the key pair. For DSA,
•
the range is from 768 to 2048. For RSA and RSA1, the range
is from 768 to 4096. The greater the number of bits that you
specify, the longer it takes to generate the key. The default is
768.
force—(Optional) Forces the generation of a DSA or RSA
•
key even when previous keys exist. If the SSH key pair
option is already generated for the required version, use the
force option to overwrite the previously generated key pair.
(Optional) Removes the SSH host key pair.
(Optional) Displays the host key pair details for the specified key
or for all keys if you do not specify a key.
