{{Admon/note|OpenSSH Assumemd|These instructions assume a Linux or Mac OS/X system running OpenSSH. Other SSH clients will have different procedures, and you'll need to check that the key produced is in OpenSSH format (you can convert key types using the <code>ssh-keygen</code> command on a Linux system such as Matrix if needed).}}
# Enter this command: <code>ssh-keygen</code>
#* Answer the questions asked by ssh-keygen. Use default values for most questions. The use of a passphrase is '''strongly''' recommended.
