User Guidelines
This command enables public key authentication by a local SSH server of

remote SSH clients.
The local SSH server advertises all enabled SSH authentication methods and

remote SSH clients are responsible for choosing one of them.
After a remote SSH client is successfully authenticated by public key, the

client must still be AAA-authenticated to gain management access to the

device, except if the auto-login parameter was specified.
If no SSH authentication method is enabled, remote SSH clients must still be

AAA-authenticated before being granted management access to the device.
If the auto-login keyword is specified for SSH authentication by public key

management access is granted if SSH authentication succeeds and the name

of SSH used is found in the local user database. The device management

AAA authentication is transparent to the user. If the user name is not in the

local user database, then the user receives a warning message, and the user

will need to pass the device management AAA authentication independently

of the SSH authentication.
if the auto-login keyword is not specified, management access is granted only

if the user engages and passes both SSH authentication and device

management AAA authentication independently.If no SSH authentication

method is enabled management access is granted only if the user is AAA

authenticated by the device management. No SSH authentication method

means SSH is enabled and neither SSH authentication by public key nor

password is enabled.
