Question
How to generate the SSH key for a particular user?
Answer
Following is an example of generating SSH key for a particular user (using a Linux host):
1) Login as the user for which the SSH key is to be generated.
2) To generate an RSA ssh key, issue the command: ssh-keygen -t rsa
3) Respond to prompts from the ssh-keygen command, which generates an SSH key in ${HOME}/.ssh (unless the user specified a different directory)
4) At the appliance CLI prompt, use command "mgmt ssh add" to install the public key for the user (i.e. file ${HOME}/.ssh/id_rsa.pub).
