crypto key generate rsa
The crypto key generate rsa Global Configuration mode command generates
RSA key pairs.
Syntax
crypto key generate rsa
Default Configuration
RSA key paris do not exist.
Command Mode
Global Configuration mode
User Guidelines
RSA keys are generated in pairs - one public RSA key and one private RSA key.
If the device already has RSA keys, a warning is displayed with a prompt to
replace the existing keys with new keys.
This command is not saved in the router configuration; however, the keys
generated by this command are saved in the private configuration (which is
never displayed to the user or backed up to another device).
Example
The following example generates RSA key pairs.
Console(config)# crypto key generate rsa
show crypto key mypubkey
The show crypto key mypubkey Privileged EXEC mode command displays
the device SSH public keys.
Syntax
[rsa | dsa]
show crypto key mypubkey
