RSA and Certificate Commands
crypto key generate dsa
The
crypto key generate dsa
Global Configuration mode command generates
DSA key pairs.
Syntax
crypto key generate dsa
Default Configuration
DSA key pairs do not exist.
Command Mode
Global Configuration mode
User Guidelines
DSA keys are generated in pairs - one public DSA key and one private DSA
key.
If the device already has DSA keys, a warning is displayed with a prompt to
replace the existing keys with new keys.
This command is not saved in the router configuration. However, the keys
generated by this command are saved in the private configuration (which is
never displayed to the user or backed up to another device).
Example
The following example generates DSA key pairs.
Console(config)#
crypto key generate dsa
