Users Guide

Parameters
• username — Enter the user name of the remote client. This value is the user name configured with the
username password role command.
• sshkey-string — Enter the text string used as the public key by a remote client device to log on to the
OS10 switch. If sshkey-string contains a blank space, enclose the string in double quotes (").
Default
The default SSH server keys are an RSA key generated using 2048 bits, an ECDSA key with 256 bits, and an
Ed2559 key with 256 bits.
Command Mode CONFIGURATION
Usage Information
To configure multiple user names for SSH password-less login, use the username sshkey filename
command. The no username username sshkey command removes the SSH password-less configuration
for a specified user name.
Locate the public keys on a remote client in the ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub file. Use the public key as the sshkey-
string or publickey-string parameter.
Supported on the MX9116n and MX5108n switches in Full Switch mode starting in release 10.4.1.0. Also supported
in SmartFabric mode starting in release 10.5.0.1.
