Usage Information
This command species the rhost le used for host-based authentication. This creates/ le overwrites the
flash:/ADMIN_DIR/ssh/shosts le and deletes the user-specied le. Even though this command is a
global conguration command, it does not appear in the running conguration because you only need to run this
command once.
This le contains hostnames and usernames, for which hosts and users, rhost-authentication can be allowed.
NOTE: For rhostfile and pub-key-file, the administrator must FTP the le to the
switch.
ip ssh rsa-authentication (Cong)
Enable RSA authentication for the SSHv2 server.
Syntax
ip ssh rsa-authentication enable
To disable RSA authentication, use the no ip ssh rsa-authentication enable command.
