Information
This command specifies the rhost file used for host-based authentication. This creates/ file overwrites
the flash:/ADMIN_DIR/ssh/shosts file and deletes the user-specified file. Even though this
command is a global configuration command, it does not appear in the running configuration because you
only need to run this command once.
This file contains hostnames and usernames, for which hosts and users, rhost-authentication can be
allowed.
NOTE: For rhostfile and pub-key-file, the administrator must FTP the file to the switch.
