SSH Keys

SSH Keys used by Lodestar Forge when deploying infrastructure.

When deploying infrastructure using Forge, SSH keys are required to authenticate with remote servers. These keys are used to manage the infrastructure, and also to provide users with secure access to their own resources.

  4. Click the "Create Key" button.
  5. Complete the form and download the key when prompted.

Warning
