Examples of public key management

Example for entering a peer host public key

Network requirements
As shown in
signature. Before configuring authentication parameters on Device B, configure the public key of
Device A on Device B.
•
Configure Device B to use the asymmetric key algorithm of RSA to authenticate Device A.
•
Manually specify the host public key of Device A on Device B.
Figure 85 Network diagram
Device A
Configuration procedure
1. Configure Device A:
# Create local RSA key pairs with default names on Device A, and use the default modulus
length 1024 bits.
<DeviceA> system-view
[DeviceA] public-key local create rsa
The range of public key modulus is (512 ~ 2048).
If the key modulus is greater than 512, it will take a few minutes.
Press CTRL+C to abort.
Input the modulus length [default = 1024]:

Remarks
When you exit public key view, the
system automatically saves the peer
host public key.
