Download Key SSH M4100-26G
I'm trying to download the ssh key for the M4100-26G switch, but the message "key file not valid" only appears. Can anyone suggest a solution as I've found little about the problem so far?

What does SSH -> SSH Configuration show ... something like Keys Present: No ?
Yes, but I'm trying to enter the public key of the PC I use to manage it and it says "Key file not valid!". I've already formatted the key with the command ssh-keygen -f netgear.pub -e -m RFC4716 > netgearsw, but it still doesn't work.
Don't we talk of SSH here? Not of https SSL/TLS with private and public keys. AFAIK, the SSH key can be generated for SSH-1 (obsolete) and SSH-2 on the device, the switch itself - from there you can download it to your SSH workstation:

Probably is the same problem of tacoman.
