• An SSH host key that your SSH client program uses to authenticate
the Management Card in the Battery Management System master
controller when you log on to the control console interface.
Only APC server management and key management products can use
server certificates, host keys, and CA root certificates created by the APC
Security Wizard. These files will not work with products such as OpenSSL
®
and Microsoft IIS.
All public keys for SSL certificates and all host keys for SSH
that are created with the APC Security Wizard are 1024-bit
RSA keys. If you do not create and use SSL server
certificates and SSH host keys with the APC Security
Wizard, the Management Card generates 768-bit RSA keys.
