2. Enter the following:
Imported Keys (SSH In)
Host & User Associated with Key
These entries are required in the following cases:
- The imported key file does not contain the host that the user will be making an SSH
connection from, or
- The SLC local user login for the connection is different from the user name the key was
generated from or is not included in the imported key file, or
- The imported key file contains multiple keys; in this case, each key must include the user
name and host at the end of the line in the standard <key> <user name>@<host>
format.
If either of these conditions is true, or the imported file is in SECSH format, you must specify the
user and host. The following is an example of a public key file that includes the user and host:
ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAABIwAAAEEApUHCX9EWsHt+jmUGXa1YC3us
ABYxIXUhSU1N+NU9HNaUADUFfd8LYz8/gUnUSH4Ksm8GRT7/8/Sn9jCVfGPh
