SCP

The following table lists the Secure Copy (SCP) commands that are available to compensate for equivalent existing functionality of TFTP commands disabled in FIPS mode.

Table 1. Corresponding TFTP and SCP commands

Command functionality

TFTP commands not allowed in FIPS mode

SCP commands with corresponding functionality in FIPS mode

Import a digital certificate

ip ssl certificate-data-file tftp ip-address certificate-filename

scp certificate-filename user@ip-address:sslCert

Import an RSA private key from a client

ip ssl private-key-file tftp ip-address key-filename

scp key-filename user@ip-address: sslPrivKey

Load an RSA public key file from a client

ip ssh pub-key-file tftp ip-address key-filename

scp key-filename user@ ip-address: sshPubKey

Importing a digital certificate

To import a digital certificate using SCP, enter a command such as the following:

C:> scp certfile user@192.168.89.210:sslCert

Syntax: scp certificate-filename user@ip-address:sslCert

Note

Note

The scp command is not supported on NetIron CER devices.

The certificate-filename variable is the file name of the digital certificate that you are importing to the device.

The ip-address variable is the IP address of the server from which the digital certificate file is downloaded.

The functionality of the scp command is equivalent to that of the disabled ip ssl certificate-data-file tftp command.

For more information on the scp command, refer to the Extreme NetIron Routing Configuration Guide.

Importing an RSA private key from a client

To import an RSA private key from a client using SCP, enter a command such as the following:

C:> scp keyfile user@192.168.9.210:sslPrivKey

Syntax: scp key-filename user@ip-address:sslPrivKey

Note

Note

The scp command is not supported on NetIron CER devices.

The key-filename variable is the file name of the private key that you want to import into the device.

The ip-address variable is the IP address of the server that contains the private key file.

The functionality of the scp command is equivalent to that of the disabled ip ssl private-key-file tftp command.

For more information on the scp command, refer to the Extreme NetIron Routing Configuration Guide.
