- .SH DESCRIPTION
- .IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
- This command processes RSA keys. They can be converted between
- various forms and their components printed out.
- .SH OPTIONS
- .IX Header "OPTIONS"
- .IP \fB\-help\fR 4
- .IX Item "-help"
- Print out a usage message.
- .IP "\fB\-inform\fR \fBDER\fR|\fBPEM\fR|\fBP12\fR|\fBENGINE\fR" 4
- .IX Item "-inform DER|PEM|P12|ENGINE"
- The key input format; unspecified by default.
- See \fBopenssl\-format\-options\fR\|(1) for details.
- .IP "\fB\-outform\fR \fBDER\fR|\fBPEM\fR" 4
- .IX Item "-outform DER|PEM"
- The key output format; the default is \fBPEM\fR.
- See \fBopenssl\-format\-options\fR\|(1) for details.
- .IP \fB\-traditional\fR 4
- .IX Item "-traditional"
- When writing a private key, use the traditional PKCS#1 format
- instead of the PKCS#8 format.
- .IP "\fB\-in\fR \fIfilename\fR|\fIuri\fR" 4
- .IX Item "-in filename|uri"
- This specifies the input to read a key from or standard input if this
- option is not specified. If the key is encrypted a pass phrase will be
- prompted for.
- .IP "\fB\-passin\fR \fIarg\fR, \fB\-passout\fR \fIarg\fR" 4
- .IX Item "-passin arg, -passout arg"
- The password source for the input and output file.
- For more information about the format of \fBarg\fR
- see \fBopenssl\-passphrase\-options\fR\|(1).
- .IP "\fB\-out\fR \fIfilename\fR" 4
- .IX Item "-out filename"
- This specifies the output filename to write a key to or standard output if this
- option is not specified. If any encryption options are set then a pass phrase
- will be prompted for. The output filename should \fBnot\fR be the same as the input
- filename.
- .IP "\fB\-aes128\fR, \fB\-aes192\fR, \fB\-aes256\fR, \fB\-aria128\fR, \fB\-aria192\fR, \fB\-aria256\fR, \fB\-camellia128\fR, \fB\-camellia192\fR, \fB\-camellia256\fR, \fB\-des\fR, \fB\-des3\fR, \fB\-idea\fR" 4
- .IX Item "-aes128, -aes192, -aes256, -aria128, -aria192, -aria256, -camellia128, -camellia192, -camellia256, -des, -des3, -idea"
- These options encrypt the private key with the specified
- cipher before outputting it. A pass phrase is prompted for.
- If none of these options is specified the key is written in plain text. This
- means that this command can be used to remove the pass phrase from a key
- by not giving any encryption option is given, or to add or change the pass
- phrase by setting them.
- These options can only be used with PEM format output files.
- .IP \fB\-text\fR 4
- .IX Item "-text"
- Prints out the various public or private key components in
- plain text in addition to the encoded version.
- .IP \fB\-noout\fR 4
- .IX Item "-noout"
- This option prevents output of the encoded version of the key.
- .IP \fB\-modulus\fR 4
- .IX Item "-modulus"
- This option prints out the value of the modulus of the key.
- .IP \fB\-check\fR 4
- .IX Item "-check"
- This option checks the consistency of an RSA private key.
- .IP \fB\-pubin\fR 4
- .IX Item "-pubin"
- By default a private key is read from the input.
- With this option a public key is read instead.
- If the input contains no public key but a private key, its public part is used.
- .IP \fB\-pubout\fR 4
- .IX Item "-pubout"
- By default a private key is output: with this option a public
- key will be output instead. This option is automatically set if
- the input is a public key.
- .IP "\fB\-RSAPublicKey_in\fR, \fB\-RSAPublicKey_out\fR" 4
- .IX Item "-RSAPublicKey_in, -RSAPublicKey_out"
- Like \fB\-pubin\fR and \fB\-pubout\fR except \fBRSAPublicKey\fR format is used instead.
- .IP \fB\-pvk\-strong\fR 4
- .IX Item "-pvk-strong"
- Enable 'Strong' PVK encoding level (default).
- .IP \fB\-pvk\-weak\fR 4
- .IX Item "-pvk-weak"
- Enable 'Weak' PVK encoding level.
- .IP \fB\-pvk\-none\fR 4
- .IX Item "-pvk-none"
- Don't enforce PVK encoding.
- .IP "\fB\-engine\fR \fIid\fR" 4
- .IX Item "-engine id"
- See "Engine Options" in \fBopenssl\fR\|(1).
- This option is deprecated.
- .IP "\fB\-provider\fR \fIname\fR" 4
- .IX Item "-provider name"
- .PD 0
- .IP "\fB\-provider\-path\fR \fIpath\fR" 4
- .IX Item "-provider-path path"
- .IP "\fB\-propquery\fR \fIpropq\fR" 4
- .IX Item "-propquery propq"
- .PD
- See "Provider Options" in \fBopenssl\fR\|(1), \fBprovider\fR\|(7), and \fBproperty\fR\|(7).
