NAME
oct-admin-generate - Generate a Key on the card
SYNOPSIS
oct admin generate <-o|--output> [--no-dec] [--no-aut] <-u|--userid> [-p|--user-pin] [-h|--help] [algorithm]
DESCRIPTION
Generate a Key on the card.
A signing key is always created, decryption and authentication keys are optional.
OPTIONS
- -o, --output <output>
- Output file
- --no-dec
- Do not create a key in the DEC slot
- --no-aut
- Do not create a key in the AUT slot
- -u, --userid <User ID>
- User ID to add to the exported certificate representation
- -p, --user-pin <User PIN file>
- Optionally, get User PIN from a file
- -h, --help
- Print help (see a summary with '-h')
- [algorithm]
- Choose the algorithm for the key material to generate on the card.
If the parameter is not given, use the algorithm currently set on the card.
Specific cards support a set of algorithms that can differ between models. On modern cards,
use 'oct info' to see the list of supported algorithms.Possible values:
- rsa2048
- rsa3072
- rsa4096
- nistp256
