5. Log into the IDP command-line interface and verify the SSH key fingerprint.
Comparing the SSH key fingerprint information enables you to detect
man-in-the-middle attacks:
a. Connect to the IDP command-line interface:
■ Use SSH to connect to the IP address or hostname for the management
interface. Log in as admin and enter su – to switch to root.
■ If you prefer, make a connection through the serial port and log in as
root.
b. Enter cd /etc/ssh.
c. Enter ssh-keygen -l -f ssh_host_dsa_key.
The command generates output similar to the following:
1024 f4:91:d0:04:b7:61:00:77:45:c3:cc:bd:af:b3:5b:a2 ssh_host_dsa_key.pub
After you have verified the SSH key fingerprint matches, click Next.
