Note: SSH Keys from other programs may be converted to the required format. Use Open SSH to perform the conversion.

SSH Client Known Hosts

The SSH Client Known Hosts are used by all applications that play the role of an SSH Client. Specifically in Action Connect Mode. Configuring these public keys are optional but if they exist another layer of security is offered which helps prevent Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) attacks.

Description

Server

Specify either a DNS Hostname or IP Address when adding public host keys for a

 

Server. This Server name should match the name used as the Remote Address in

 

Action Connect Mode.

 

 

Public RSA Key

Enter the path and name of the existing public RSA key you want to use with this

 

user. In WebManager, you can also browse to the public RSA key to be uploaded. If

 

authentication is successful with the key, no password is required.

 

 

Public DSA Key

Enter the path and name of the existing public DSA key you want to use with this

 

user. In WebManager, you can also browse to the public DSA key to be uploaded.If

 

authentication is successful with the key, no password is required.

 

 

Note: These settings are not required for communication. They protect against Man-In- The-Middle (MITM) attacks.

SSH Server Authorized Users

The SSH Server Authorized Users are used by all applications that play the role of an SSH Server and specifically Tunnel Accept. Every user account must have a Password.

The user's Public Keys are optional and only necessary if public key authentication is wanted. Using public key authentication will allow a connection to be made without the password being asked at that time.

Note: When uploading the security keys, ensure the keys are not compromised in transit.
