host ip-address

symmetric encrypted key with a fixed length will follow. By default, the encryption type is 0.
string
is the shared key for the switch and the server, which contains 32 characters at most.
encrypted-string
is a symmetric encrypted key with a fixed length, which you can copy from
the configuration file of another switch. The key or encrypted-key you configure here will be
displayed in the encrypted form.
