Exported Keys - Lantronix SecureLinx SLC8 User Manual

12: User Authentication
The public key file can be imported via SCP or FTP; once imported, you can view or delete the
public key. Any SSH connection into the SLC from the designated host/user combination uses the
SSH key for authentication.

Exported Keys

The SLC can generate SSH keys for SSH connections out of the SLC for any SLC user. The SLC
retains both the private and public key on the SLC, and makes the public key available for export
via SCP, FTP, or copy and paste. The name of the key is used to generate the name of the public
key file that is exported (for example, <keyname>.pub), and the exported keys are organized by
user and key name. Once a key is generated and exported, you can delete the key or view the
public portion. Any SSH connection out of the SLC for the designated host/user combination uses
the SSH key for authentication.
To configure the SLC to use SSH keys to authenticate users:
1. From the main menu, select User Authentication – SSH Keys. Figure 12-9 shows the page
that displays.
