Cisco document says:
crypto key generate rsa [usage-keys | general-keys] [key-pair-label]
general-keys
(Optional) Specifies that the general-purpose key pair should be generated.
usage-keys
(Optional) Specifies that two special-usage key pairs should be generated, instead of one general-purpose key pair.
But, after command:
R1(config)#crypto key generate rsa general-keys modulus 512
The name for the keys will be: R1.test.com
% The key modulus size is 512 bits
% Generating 512 bit RSA keys, keys will be non-exportable...[OK]
R1#show crypto key mypubkey rsa
% Key pair was generated at: 00:03:29 UTC Mar 1 2002
Key name: R1.test.com
Usage: General Purpose Key
Key is not exportable.

As the show command output, Two RSA key pairs generated (not one pair):
Key name: R1.test.com
Usage: General Purpose Key
Key name: R1.test.com.server
Usage: Encryption Key
may buddy tell me why? Thanks!
