SSH1, SSH2, and OpenSSH are three public key formats. You can choose one as required. For
example, if you want to export the RSA host public key to a file in the SSH1 format, use the
public-key local export rsa ssh1 filename command.
The host public key displayed on the screen is in a format that is not transformed and cannot be
used as the public key data for public key configuration.
Related commands: public-key local create, rsa local-key-pair create.
Examples
# Generate RSA key pairs.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] public-key local create rsa
The range of public key size is (512 ~ 2048).
NOTES: If the key modulus is greater than 512,
It will take a few minutes.
Input the bits in the modulus[default = 1024]:
