ip ssh server port number
2. On Chassis One, enable SSH.
CONFIGURATION mode
ip ssh server enable
3. On Chassis Two, invoke SCP.
CONFIGURATION mode
copy scp: flash:
4. On Chassis Two, in response to prompts, enter the path to the desired le and enter the port number specied in Step 1.

Example of Using SCP to Copy from an SSH Server on Another Switch
Other SSH-related commands include:
• crypto key generate: generate keys for the SSH server.
• debug ip ssh: enables collecting SSH debug information.
• ip scp topdir: identify a location for les used in secure copy transfer.
• ip ssh authentication-retries: congure the maximum number of attempts that should be used to authenticate a
user.
• ip ssh connection-rate-limit: congure the maximum number of incoming SSH connections per minute.
• ip ssh hostbased-authentication enable: enable host-based authentication for the SSHv2 server.
• ip ssh key-size: congure the size of the server-generated RSA SSHv1 key.
• ip ssh password-authentication enable: enable password authentication for the SSH server.
• ip ssh pub-key-file: specify the le the host-based authentication uses.
• ip ssh rhostsfile: specify the rhost le the host-based authorization uses.
• ip ssh rsa-authentication enable: enable RSA authentication for the SSHv2 server.
• ip ssh rsa-authentication: add keys for the RSA authentication.
• show crypto: display the public part of the SSH host-keys.
• show ip ssh client-pub-keys: display the client public keys used in host-based authentication.
• show ip ssh rsa-authentication: display the authorized-keys for the RSA authentication.
The following example shows the use of SCP and SSH to copy a software image from one switch running SSH server on UDP port
99 to the local switch.
Dell#copy scp: flash:
Address or name of remote host []: 10.10.10.1
Port number of the server [22]: 99
Source file name []: test.cfg
User name to login remote host: admin
Password to login remote host:
Removing the RSA Host Keys and Zeroizing Storage
Use the crypto key zeroize rsa command to delete the host key pairs, both the public and private key information for RSA 1
and or RSA 2 types. Note that when FIPS mode is enabled there is no RSA 1 key pair. Any memory currently holding these keys is
zeroized (written over with zeroes) and the NVRAM location where the keys are stored for persistence across reboots is also
zeroized.
To remove the generated RSA host keys and zeroize the key storage location, use the crypto key zeroize rsa command in
CONFIGURATION mode.
Dell(conf)#crypto key zeroize rsa
