Upload Keys
Private Key		Enter the path and name of the existing private key you want to
		upload or use the Browse button to select the key. Be sure the
		private key will not be compromised in transit. This implies the
		data is uploaded over some kind of secure private network or
		an HTTPS connection.
		Note: You can upload keys that have up to 2048-bit key length.
Public Key		Enter the path and name of the existing public key you want to
		upload or use the Browse button to select the key.
Key Type		Select a key type to be used. Choices are:
		RSA = use this key with SSH1 and SSH2 protocols.
		DSA = use this key with the SSH2 protocol.
Create New Keys
Key Type		Select a key type to be used for the new key. Choices are:
		RSA = use this key with the SSH1 and SSH2 protocols.
		DSA = use this key with the SSH2 protocol.
Bit Size		Select a bit length for the new key. Choices are:
	512
	768
	1024

Using a larger bit size takes more time to generate the key.

Approximate times are:

10 seconds for a 512-bit RSA key

1 minute for a 768-bit RSA key

2 minutes for a 1024-bit RSA key

2 minutes for a 512-bit DSA key

10 minutes for a 768-bit DSA key

15 minutes for a 1024-bit DSA key

Some SSH clients require RSA host keys to be at least 1024 bits long.
