device# certutil import sshkey user admin host 10.70.4.106 directory /users/home40/bmeenaks/.ssh file id_rsa.pub login fvt password pass1
The following example demonstrates the use of special characters in a password.
device# certutil import ssh host 192.168.10.10 dir /home/brcd1/.ssh file id_rsa.pub user admin login brcd1 pass Abcde\! login brcd1 pass "Abcde!"
