SSH Keys

Using SSH keys is the recommended and most secure method for accessing your Virtual Machines (VMs). SSH keys provide a more secure alternative to password-based authentication, helping to protect your infrastructure from unauthorized access.

To import a new SSH key:

1. Navigate to the SSH Keys page located under Networks and Security in the navigation bar.
2. Click Import SSH Key in the top right corner.
3. Paste your public SSH key and provide a recognizable name. Your public SSH key can be found at ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
4. Save your changes.

Once added, you can assign this key to a VM during VM creation to securely connect to the VM.

Admins may manage SSH keys for other users by clicking the Manage Other Users button in the top right corner.
