Guidelines

The host-key-alg command specifies the host key algorithms that the server supports. Host key algorithms are the algorithms to sign and verify the authenticity of an SSH server's host key. An empty list indicates that the server supports all algorithms. By default, the SSH server profile supports all algorithms.
