The general steps for configuring SSH include:
A. Client Preparation
1.
Install an SSH client application on a management station you want
to use for access to the switch. (Refer to the documentation provided
with your SSH client application.)
2.
Optional—If you want the switch to authenticate a client public-key
on the client:
a. Either generate a public/private key pair on the client computer
(if your client application allows) or import a client key pair that
you have generated using another SSH application.
b. Copy the client public key into an ASCII file on a TFTP server
accessible to the switch and download the client public key file to
the switch. (The client public key file can hold up to ten client
keys.) This topic is covered under "To Create a Client-Public-Key
Text File" on page 6-24.
