Public key authentication is supported using a X.509 certificate issued to the management client. If you specify
public-key authentication, you need to load the client X.509 certificate into the controller and configure
certificate authentication for the management user with the mgmt-user ssh-pubkey command.
Example
The following commands configure SSH access using public key authentication only:
(host) (config) #ssh mgmt-auth public-key
mgmt-user ssh-pubkey client-cert ssh-pubkey cli-admin root
