switch#
Step 7
(Optional) show ssh key [dsa | rsa | ecdsa] [md5 ]
Example:
switch# show ssh key
Step 8
show run security all
Purpose
Enters global configuration mode.
Disables SSH.
Generates the SSH server key.
The bits argument is the number of bits used to generate
the RSA key. The range is from 768 to 2048. The default
value is 1024.
You cannot specify the size of the DSA key. It is always
set to 1024 bits.
Use the force keyword to replace an existing key.
Note
If you configure ssh key dsa, you must do the
following additional configurations: ssh keytypes
all and ssh kexalgos all
Configures the rekey parameters.
Enables SSH.
Exits global configuration mode.
Displays the SSH server keys.
This command displays the fingerprint in SHA256 format
by default. SHA256 is more secure than the old default
format of MD5. However, the md5 option has been added,
if you want to see the fingerprint in MD5 format for
backward compatibility.
