no ip ssh password-authentication or no ip ssh rsa-authentication
6. Enable host-based authentication.
CONFIGURATION mode
ip ssh hostbased-authentication enable
7. Bind shosts and rhosts to host-based authentication.
CONFIGURATION mode
ip ssh pub-key-file flash://filename or ip ssh rhostsfile flash://filename
The following example shows creating shosts.
admin@Unix_client# cd /etc/ssh
admin@Unix_client# ls
moduli sshd_config ssh_host_dsa_key.pub ssh_host_key.pub
ssh_host_rsa_key.pub ssh_config ssh_host_dsa_key ssh_host_key
ssh_host_rsa_key
admin@Unix_client# cat ssh_host_rsa_key.pub

Using Client-Based SSH Authentication
To SSH from the chassis to the SSH client, use the following command.
If the SSH port is a non-default value, use the ip ssh server port number command to change the default port number.
You may only change the port number when SSH is disabled. Then use the -p option with the ssh command.
● SSH from the chassis to the SSH client.
ssh ip_address

-l User name option
-m HMAC algorithm to use (for v2 clients only)
-p SSH server port option (default 22)
-v SSH protocol version
Troubleshooting SSH
To troubleshoot SSH, use the following information.
You may not bind id_rsa.pub to RSA authentication while logged in via the console. In this case, this message displays:%Error:
