Configuration procedure
In the server configuration, the client's host public key is required. Use the client software to generate the
RSA key pairs on the client before configuring the SFTP server.
Configure the SFTP client:
1.
# Assign an IP address to VLAN-interface 2.
<SwitchA> system-view
[SwitchA] interface vlan-interface 2
[SwitchA-Vlan-interface2] ip address 192.168.0.2 255.255.255.0
[SwitchA-Vlan-interface2] quit
# Generate the RSA key pairs.
[SwitchA] public-key local create rsa
The range of public key size is (512 ~ 2048).
Figure 59, you can log in to Switch B through the SFTP client that runs on Switch A and are
