Dell Networking N1500/N2000/N3000/N4000 Series Switches
Management access to the switch is supported via telnet, SSH, or the serial
console. The Dell Networking supports secure shell (SSH) and secure sockets
layer (SSL) to help ensure the security of network transactions.
Keys and certificates can be generated externally (that is, offline) and
downloaded to the target or generated directly by the Dell Networking switch.
Commands in this Section
This section explains the following commands:
crypto key generate dsa
Use the crypto key generate dsa command in Global Configuration mode to
generate DSA key pairs for your switch. A key pair is one public DSA key and
one private DSA key. Use the crypto key zeroize command to remove the
generated private key from the local file system. The public and private keys
will be overwritten if the command is subsequently executed.
