R2511-HP MSR Router Series Security Command Reference(V5)
440
prefer-kex: Specifies the preferred key exchange algorithm. The default algorithm is dh-group-exchange
in non-FIPS mode, and dh-group14 in FIPS mode.
• dh-group-exchange: Specifies the key exchange algorithm diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha1.
This keyword is not available in FIPS mode.
• dh-group1: Specifies the key exchange algorithm diffie-hellman-group1-sha1. This keyword is not
available in FIPS mode.
• dh-group14: Specifies the key exchange algorithm diffie-hellman-group14-sha1.
prefer-stoc-cipher: Specifies the preferred server-to-client encryption algorithm. The default algorithm is
aes128.
prefer-stoc-hmac: Specifies the preferred server-to-client HMAC algorithm. The default algorithm is
sha1-96.
Usage guidelines
When the server adopts publickey authentication to authenticate a client, the client must get the local
private key for digital signature. In non-FIPS mode, because the publickey authentication uses either RSA
or DSA algorithm, you must specify the public key algorithm of the client (by using the identity-key
keyword) in order to get the correct local private key.
Examples
# Connect to server 2:5::8:9, using the following connection scheme:
• The preferred key exchange algorithm is dh-group1.
• The preferred server-to-client encryption algorithm is aes128.
• The preferred client-to-server HMAC algorithm is md5.
• The preferred server-to-client HMAC algorithm is sha1-96.

Input Username:
ssh client authentication server
Use ssh client authentication server on the client to configure the host public key of a specified server so
that the client can determine whether the server is trustworthy.
Use undo ssh client authentication server to remove the configuration.
Syntax
ssh client authentication server server assign publickey keyname
undo ssh client authentication server server assign publickey
Default
No host public key of a server is configured. When the client logs into a server, it uses the IP address or
host name of the server as the public key name.
