Step 3 Run:
public-key-code begin
The public key editing view is displayed.
Step 4 Run:
hex-data
The public key is edited.
The public key must be a string of hexadecimal alphanumeric characters. It is automatically
generated by an SSH client. You can run the display rsa local-key-pair public command to
view a generated public key.
Step 5 Run:
public-key-code end
Quit the public key editing view.
If the specified hex-data is invalid, the public key cannot be generated after the peer-public-
key end command is run; If the specified key-name is deleted in other views, the system prompts
that the key does not exist after the peer-public-key end command is run and the system view
is displayed.
Step 6 Run:
peer-public-key end
Return to the system view from the public key view.
Step 7 Run:
ssh client servername assign rsa-key keyname
Assign a public key to the SSH server.

9.6.4 Enabling the SFTP Client

You can log in to the SSH server from the SSH client through SFTP.
Context
Do as follows on the switch that serves as an SSH client.
Issue 01 (2011-07-15)
NOTE
l Before being assigned to the SSH server, the assigned peer RSA public key must be obtained from the
SSH server and must be configured on the SSH client. Then, the SFTP client can successfully undergo
the validity check on the RSA public key of the SSH server.
l If the RSA public key stored on the SSH client becomes invalid, run the undo ssh client servername
assign rsa-key command to cancel the association between the SSH client and the SSH server. Then,
run the ssh client servername assign rsa-key keyname command to allocate a new RSA public key to
the SSH server.
NOTE
The command of enabling the SFTP client is similar to that of the STelnet. When accessing the SSH server,
the SFTP can carry the source address and choose the key exchange algorithm, encrypted algorithm and
HMAC algorithm, and configure the keepalive function.
