Purpose
Delete the stored public key for the
named host from the known hosts file for the current user. When the
user issues command file get|put scp://user@host/dir, the public key
of the host is saved in a local file, and used to verify the host's
identity on subsequent file get|put scp:// commands. If the host changes
its key, that verification can fail. Use this command to delete the
public key stored for a known host, so the host's new key can be learned.
Syntax
user known-hosts delete hostname
Parameters
hostname
Host name or IP address of the known hosts entry to be deleted.
Example
Delete
the public key for known host
aaa.example.com from the currently logged-in user's known hosts list.
<p>Console> user known-hosts delete aaa.example.com
