Creating an SSH session using Public Key with Passphrase Authentication
for the admin account
You must first provide the secure Orolia product a RSA public key found typically in the
OpenSSH id_rsa.pub file. Then you may attempt to create an SSH session.
ssh -i ./id_rsa spadmin@10.10.200.5
Enter passphrase for key './id_rsa': mysecretpassphrase
Please consult the SSH client tool’s documentation for specifics on how to use the tool,
select SSH protocols, and provide user private keys.
