RSA Key pair used by SSL
and SSH servers
Key and Certificate Management Option Descriptions
This is a private/public key pair that is used for two purposes:
It is used by some cipher suites to encrypt the SSL/TLS handshaking messages.
Possession of the private portion of this key pair allows an eavesdropper to both
decrypt traffic on SSL/TLS connections that use RSA encryption during
handshaking.
It is used to sign the Server RSA Certificate in order to verify that the ICDM-RX/
TCP is authorized to use the server RSA identity certificate. Possession of the
private portion of this key pair allows somebody to pose as the ICDM-RX/TCP.
If the Server RSA Key is to be replaced, a corresponding RSA identity certificate
must also be generated and uploaded or clients are not able to verify the identity
certificate.
