SSH Pubkey

Your SSH public key is used for passwordless login over the SSH client.

You can generate an SSH key pair (including the public key and private key) on your local PC, add the public key to the bastion host system, export the private key to the local PC, and import the private key to the SSH client tool. In this way, you can log in to the bastion host system using the SSH client without entering a password.

Constraints

Only OpenSSH public keys are supported.
