key-based authentication from Cisco IOS device

Hi,

Hopefully the title says it all - is there a way of using the ssh client to use a particular private key for ssh authentication?

The scenario I'm thinking of is to use the archive command to backup configs without having to use an scp url ( ie scp://user:password@servername/filename ).

Thanks in advance.

Ben

Thanks for the suggestion. I thought I'd been over that document quite thoroughly, but it all seemed to concern ssh connections towards an IOS ssh server - or am I missing something?

 - Not as the title of the document suggests , but I guess it needs to be tested.
