===============================================================================================================================================================

|
|
|
Open **Compute -> Key Pairs**
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Click **Create Key Pair**, insert the name of the key (eg. “ssh-key”) and Key Type.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After generating Key Pair your new Private Key download window will appear. Click **Open with Text Editor**
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Save the key as **“id\_rsa”** in the folder of your choice (in linux the keys are usually kept in **~./ssh** folder).
|
|
|
|
In case of linux you should change the permissions on the private key:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ sudo chmod 600 id_rsa
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Click key name in **Key Pairs** menu and read your **public key**. You can also save the key to a file like the private key. For example named **“id\_rsa.pub”**.
