→How To Create SSH Keys
On your local computer, generate a SSH key pair by typing:
<pre class="code-pre ">$bash>ssh-keygen<br>Generating public/private rsa key pair. Enter file in which to save the key (/home/<span class="highlight">username</span>/.ssh/id_rsa):</pre>
The utility will prompt you to select a location for the keys that will be generated. By default, the keys will be stored in the <code>~/.ssh</code> directory within your user's home directory. The private key will be called <code>id_rsa</code> and the associated public key will be called <code>id_rsa.pub</code>.
