SSH key authentication on M4300

Hi,

I have lots of different devices from different vendors in my network (HP/Aruba, Cisco, FortiNet, pfSense, ...) - and our Netgear M4300 devices are the ONLY ones that cannot do key based authentication for ssh.

 

I use ssh to do regular config backup using oxidized, and it really bugs me that I have to store plaintext passwords for the Netgear devices.

 

Are there any plans to implement ssh key based authentication?

 

thanks,

Markus
