Using SSH Public-Key Based Authentication
To use the public-key based authentication method on a client, you need to
generate a key pair (RSA or DSA) on the client, put the key on the SSH server,
and select the PublicKey authentication method. The following uses the client
software SecureCRT as an example for describing how to generate the key
pair on the client.
Step 1: In the Authentication option of Session Option, select PublicKey and
then Properties. See the following figure.

Figure Click Properties... If the key pair has been generated, you can choose
the used private key (Use identity or certificate file). Note that the private key
must be paired with the public key on the server. Otherwise, authentication fails.
