- Generate an SSH key of [t]ype ed25519 and write it to key [f]ile:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`dropbearkey -t {{ed25519}} -f {{path/to/key_file}}`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Generate an SSH key of [t]ype ecdsa and write it to key [f]ile:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`dropbearkey -t {{ecdsa}} -f {{path/to/key_file}}`
|
|

|
- Generate an SSH key of [t]ype RSA with 4096-bit key [s]ize and write it to key [f]ile:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`dropbearkey -t {{rsa}} -s {{4096}} -f {{path/to/key_file}}`
|
|

|
|
|
|
- Print the private key fingerprint and public key in key [f]ile:
