Description

Use public-key peer import sshkey to import a peer host public key from the public key file.

Use undo public-key peer to remove the specified peer host public key.

After execution of this command, the system automatically transforms the peer host public key to the PKCS format, and imports the key. This operation requires that you get a copy of the public key file from the peer device through FTP or TFTP in binary mode in advance.

The device supports importing public keys in the format of SSH1.5, SSH2.0, and OpenSSH.
