Configure Ssl Privkey Pregenerated - Extreme Networks ExtremeWare XOS Command Reference Manual

configure ssl privkey pregenerated

configure ssl privkey pregenerated
Description
Obtains the pre-generated private key from the user.
Syntax Description
This command has no arguments or variables.
Default
N/A.
Usage Guidelines
This command is also used when downloading or uploading the configuration. The private key is
stored in the EEPROM, and the certificate is stored in the configuration file.
With this command, you copy and paste the private key into the command line followed by a blank line
to end the command. The following security algorithms are supported:
RSA for public key cryptography (generation of certificate and public-private key pair, certificate
●
signing). RSA key size between 1024 and 4096 bits.
Symmetric ciphers (for data encryption): RC4, DES, and 3DES.
●
Message Authentication Code (MAC) algorithms: MD5 and SHA.
●
The certificate and private key file should be in PEM format and generated using RSA as the
cryptography algorithm.
Similar to SSH2, before you can use any SSL commands, you must first download and install the
separate Extreme Networks SSH software module (ssh.xmod). This additional module allows you to
configure both SSH2 and SSL on the switch. SSL is packaged with the SSH module; therefore, if you do
not install the module, you are unable to configure SSL. If you try to execute SSL commands without
installing the module first, the switch notifies you to download and install the module. To install the
module, see the instructions in
The CNA Agent requires SSL to encrypt communication between the CNA Agent and the CNA Server.
For more information about the CNA Agent, see
Example
The following command obtains the pre-generated private key from the user:
configure ssl privkey pregenerated
Next, you the open the certificate and then copy and paste the certificate into the console/Telnet
session, followed by a blank line to end the command.
