SSH Keys management

To launch an instance on Sesterce Cloud, you need to link a SSH Key to it. You can paste your public key directly from the launching path, or via the Settings page.

Currently, it is not possible to add a SSH Key to an instance already live. Make sure to add all keys you need before launching your compute instance. You can add several keys to a single instance.

To generate your public SSH key from your laptop, open your terminal and type the following command: ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "[email protected]" . Then, type enter to select by-default saving place and use the following command to expose your public key: cat ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub
