Unlike Cisco IOS routers, which by default don't allow RSA private keys to be exported from NVRAM, Cisco ASAs don't protect private keys. But there's no command (of which I'm aware) to directly export the keys either.Sometimes you need to squirrel away those keys. You can do it by getting a certificate that uses the keys, then exporting a certificate bundle (with private key included). Here's how.
First, create a key:
Next, create a trustpoint which references the key, and generate a self-signed certificate:
Now the throwaway trustpoint has a certificate. Export that certificate to the terminal.
Save the blob of text including the begin/end lines. The blob is a PKCS12 bundle encrypted using the passphrase above and then base64 encoded. Be sure to save the encryption passphrase.
We no longer need the certificate or the throwaway trustpoint in which it's stored. Kill it. The private key will survive.
The easiest way to get the key onto an ASA is to import the PKCS12 blob using the passphrase. Importing the certificate will create 3 things on the ASA:
- The RSA keypair
- The certificate
- A trustpoint to hold the certificate

Generate Rsa Key Pair
Another option is to extract the key from the PKCS12 bundle using openssl on some other device. First, save the text blob without the BEGIN/END lines to a file. I'd probably call it throwaway.p12.base64. Then, it needs to be base64-decoded, and parsed from a pkcs12 certificate bundle into a pem-formated private key. The private key output contains both the private and public keys.The example above was run on MacOS, where the base64 binary has BSD heritage. On Linux, use -d rather than -D with the GNU flavor of base64.
Generates the crypto key to enable SSH. Xp pro serial number.
A crypto key is not generated and SSH is not enabled.
- dsa
- Generates the DSA host key pair.
- rsa
- Generates the RSA host key pair.
- moduluskey-size
- Specifies the modulus size of the RSA key pair, in bits. The valid values for the modulus size are 1024 or 2048. The default value is 1024.
Global configuration mode
The dsa keyword is optional. If you do not enter the dsa keyword, the crypto key generate command generates a DSA key pair by default.
To enable SSH, you generate a DSA or RSA host key on the device. The SSH server on the ICX device uses this host DSA or RSA key, along with a dynamically generated server DSA or RSA key pair, to negotiate a session key and encryption method with the client trying to connect to it. While the SSH listener exists at all times, sessions cannot be started from clients until a host key is generated. After a host key is generated, clients can start sessions. When a host key is generated, it is saved to the flash memory of all management modules. The time to initially generate SSH keys varies depending on the configuration, and can be from a under a minute to several minutes.

To disable SSH, you delete all of the host keys from the device. When a host key is deleted, it is deleted from the flash memory of all management modules.
An RSA key with modulus 2048 must be used in FIPS or Common Criteria mode.
The following example shows how to generate the DSA host key pair.
