wanboot_keymgmt(1M)					  System Administration Commands				       wanboot_keymgmt(1M)

NAME

       wanboot_keymgmt - insert and extract keys

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/lib/inet/wanboot/keymgmt -i -k key_file -s keystore -o type=keytype

       /usr/lib/inet/wanboot/keymgmt -x -f outfile -s keystore -o type=keytype

DESCRIPTION

       The keymgmt utility has two purposes:

	 o  To take a raw key, stored in key_file, and insert it in the repository specified by keystore.

	 o  To extract a key of a specified type from the repository specified by keystore, depositing it in outfile.

       outfile	will be created if it does not already exist. The type of key being added or extracted is specified by keytype and may have one of
       four values: 3des, aes, rsa, or sha1 (the last used by HMAC SHA-1). When extracting a key, the first key with an OID matching the  supplied
       type is used.

ARGUMENTS

       The following arguments are supported:

       -i

	   Used in conjunction with -k to insert a raw key in keystore.

       -f outfile

	   Used to specify a file to receive an extracted key.

       -k key_file

	   Used in conjunction with -i to specify the file in which a raw key is stored. This key will be inserted in keystore.

       -o type=keytype

	   Specifies the type of key being inserted or extracted. Must be one of 3des, aes, rsa, or sha1.

       -s keystore

	   Specifies a repository in which a key will be inserted or from which a key will be extracted.

       -x

	   Used in conjunction with -f to extract a key of a specified type and deposit it in outfile.

EXIT STATUS

       0
