You use the Acknowledge Device Fingerprint action to acknowledge the SSH fingerprints received from the device or to resolve any SSH fingerprint conflicts between the fingerprints stored in the Junos Space database and that on the device. This action is enabled only if the Authentication Status column on the Security Devices page displays one of the following statuses: Credentials Based – Unverified; Key Based – Unverified; Key Conflict – Unverified; or Fingerprint Conflict.
To acknowledge SSH fingerprints in one or more devices:
The Security Devices page appears.
The Acknowledge Device Fingerprint page appears, displaying the list of devices you selected. Table 126 displays the fields on this page.
The fingerprint must be a string of 16 octets in hexadecimal format with numbers and lowercase letters separated by colons.
The Confirm Acknowledge page appears asking you to confirm the fingerprint modification.
The Job Details: Acknowledge Device Fingerprint page appears, displaying details of the job. If a fingerprint entered for a device is in the valid format, then that fingerprint is updated in the Junos Space database.
You are returned to the Security Devices page.
