In a terminal, type the commandssh-keygen -t rsa, and press enter.
To save the key pair in other than the default directory of ~./ssh or with a different name, add the-fflag followed by the directory and key pair name (e.g. ~/Desktop/key).
When asked to enter file in which to save the key, press enter without typing in a name.
If a file name is supplied, the key pair will be saved in the terminal's current directory with the supplied name.
By default, keys are saved in the~/.sshdirectory with the namesid_rsa,id_rsa.pub.
Enter a password for the key pair, and press enter. You will be asked to retype the password for confirmation.
Upload thepublickey file (the one ending in.pub).
Logging in with SSH
In a terminal, type the commandsshfollowed by the remote host name.
If your local machine account name is different from your login username, include the-lflag followed by your login username. This should go before the remote host name.
If the private key has a non-default name or directory, include the-iflag followed by the correct directory and name. This should go before the remote host name.
Your command might look like this:ssh -luserName-ipathToKey remoteHostName
Press enter, and type the password associated with the key pair.
Type “cmd”. Under “Best Match”, click “Command Prompt”. In the command prompt, use the ssh-keygen command: By default, the system will save the keys to [your home directory]/.ssh/id_rsa.
The process of generating a key pair typically involves the use of a cryptographic algorithm to create a public and private key. The private key is kept secret and is used to sign digital signatures, while the public key is used to verify signatures and encrypt messages.
In a terminal, type the command ssh-keygen -t rsa, and press enter. To save the key pair in other than the default directory of ~./ssh or with a different name, add the -f flag followed by the directory and key pair name (e.g. ~/Desktop/key).
In the navigation pane, under Network & Security, choose Key Pairs. On the Key Pairs page, choose Create Key Pair. For Key pair name, type a name that is easy for you to remember, and then choose Create. When the console prompts you to save the private key file, save it in a safe place.
On the other computer, open the Terminal app (if it's a Mac) or an SSH client.
Type the ssh command, then press Return. The basic ssh command format is: ssh username@hostname. The hostname can be an IP address or a domain name. ...
The ssh-keygen command is a component of most SSH implementations used to generate a public key pair for use when authenticating with a remote server. In the typical use case, users generate a new public key and then copy their public key to the server using SSH and their login credentials for the remote server.
Property accessors use dot notation or bracket notation to give access to an object's properties, which can also be called keys. You can use them to add a key-value pair to an object. It's the most straightforward way of adding a key-value pair to an object.
Users can generate their own SSH keys by logging in with their username and password, selecting their username at the top right of the page, selecting My account > SFTP keys > Add SFTP key, selecting the Generate in browser option, then selecting Generate key pair.
