crypto key generate
Examples This example shows how to generate special-usage RSA keys:
crypto key generate rsa usage-keys
The name for the keys will be: myrouter.example.com
Choose the size of the key modulus in the range of 360 to 2048 for your Signature Keys.
Choosing a key modulus greater than 512 may take a few minutes.
How many bits in the modulus[512]? <return>
Generating RSA keys.... [OK].
Choose the size of the key modulus in the range of 360 to 2048 for your Encryption Keys.
Choosing a key modulus greater than 512 may take a few minutes.
How many bits in the modulus[512]? <return>
Generating RSA keys.... [OK].
This example shows how to generate general-purpose RSA keys:
Note You cannot generate both special-usage and general-purpose keys; you can generate only one or the
other.
webvpn(config)# crypto key generate rsa general-keys label kp1 exportable
The name for the keys will be: kp1
Choose the size of the key modulus in the range of 360 to 2048 for your
General Purpose Keys. Choosing a key modulus greater than 512 may take
a few minutes.
How many bits in the modulus [512]: 1024
Generating RSA keys.... [OK].
