Information
The host keys are required for key-exchange by the SSH server. If the keys are not found when
you enable the server (
ip ssh server enable
), the keys are automatically generated.
This command requires user interaction and generates a prompt prior to overwriting any
existing host keys.
NOTE: Only a user with superuser permissions should generate host-keys.
