SSH: Implement SSH Public Key Authentication
Freshman Member
Hi,
I have got a suggestion for future ZyNOS releases:
It would be great to be able to log into the switch using an SSH Pubkey instead of password.
Using pubkeys would increase security (especially combined with a possibility to disable password auth for SSH) and make scripting/automation easier as wrappers like sshpass would be no longer required.
Best regards,

We have an internal meeting to evaluate this idea, and this feature is now in Zyxel future roadmap.
Thanks for your advice.
