6.3 GenKey Command

The GenKey command performs the following operations:

• Private Key Creation: 
Creates a new random ECC private key. The command writes the generated key into the slot specified by the KeyID parameter.
• Public Key Computation: 
Outputs an ECC public corresponding to the private key stored in Slot 0. This mode of the command may be used to avoid storing the public key on the device at the expense of the time required to regenerate it.
