  3. Generate Secure Shell (SSH) keys

    The 'Secure Shell' protocol provides access to your Ubuntu Appliance and uses cryptographic keys to authenticate you to the device. You need SSH software and keys.

    Run the following command:

    ssh-keygen -t rsa
    1. This starts the key generation process. When you execute this command, the ssh-keygen utility prompts you to indicate where to store the key
    2. Press the enter key to accept the default location.
      The ssh-keygen utility prompts you for a passphrase
    3. Type in a passphrase

    You now have a public and private key that you can use to authenticate.
