After you complete the RSA key pair generation task: 

z 

If the switch is working in SSH1-compatible mode, there should be two public keys generated (that 

is, the host public key and the server public key), and the display rsa local-key-pair public 

command should display those two public keys. 

z 

If the switch is working in SSH2 mode, there should be only one public key generated (that is, the 

host public key), and the command should display the public key. 

 

display rsa peer-public-key [ brief | name keyname ] 

Any view 

brief: Displays brief information about the public keys of all SSH peers. 

keyname: Specifies a key by its name, which is a string of 1 to 64 characters. 

Use the display rsa peer-public-key command to display information about the locally saved public 

keys of all SSH peers. If no key name is specified, the command displays detailed information about the 

locally saved public keys of all SSH peers.  

The display rsa peer-public-key command on the SSH server displays the locally saved public keys 

of the SSH clients while the command on the SSH client displays the locally saved key of the SSH 

servers. 

 

Sometimes the public key modulus displayed with the display rsa peer-public-key command is one bit 

smaller than the actual modulus. This is because the actually generated key pair is one bit smaller than 

specified. For example, when you specify a 1024-bit key pair, the actually generated key pair may have 

1024 or 1023 bits.
