User Guidelines
This command enables public key authentication by a local SSH server of
remote SSH clients.
The local SSH server advertises all enabled SSH authentication methods and
remote SSH clients are responsible for choosing one of them.
After a remote SSH client is successfully authenticated by public key, the
client must still be AAA-authenticated to gain management access to the
device, except if the auto-login parameter was specified.
If no SSH authentication method is enabled, remote SSH clients must still be
AAA-authenticated before being granted management access to the device.
If the auto-login keyword is specified for SSH authentication by public key
management access is granted if SSH authentication succeeds and the name
of SSH used is found in the local user database. The device management
AAA authentication is transparent to the user. If the user name is not in the
local user database, then the user receives a warning message, and the user
will need to pass the device management AAA authentication independently
of the SSH authentication.
if the auto-login keyword is not specified, management access is granted only
if the user engages and passes both SSH authentication and device
management AAA authentication independently.If no SSH authentication
method is enabled management access is granted only if the user is AAA
authenticated by the device management. No SSH authentication method
means SSH is enabled and neither SSH authentication by public key nor
password is enabled.
