SSH Key Creation and Identification to Server

Linux prepared for this application guide, SSH Key Creation and describes what data will be recorded in the process of defining the Server, which steps will be applied and how to prove the result.

Menu names may vary according to the version used. Therefore, write the target on the screen, the service to be affected and the expected value after processing. Before changing the configuration files, take the copy and test the syntax promise without restarting the service.

Before the process starts

• Check that your unauthorized level is not enough for the process, but it is not wide from the requirement.
• Dependent DNSList database and email services.
• Get the copy of the previous employee configuration.
• Identify success criteria before processing.

Step by step app

1. Save console access, network configuration, backup status and existing service list.
2. Upgrade packages with operating system to security updates and check time synchronization.
3. Create separate user for management; apply strong authentication and minimal authorization approach.
4. Simply open the really used ports on the firewall and test the rule without closing the current session.
5. Review disk, memory, processor, inode and network usage with time range instead of instant value.
6. After changing, verify the service status, rested ports, logs and external access.
7. Keep current management session open and get the configuration file’s dated.

Verification and troubleshooting

Do not add new changes if you see unexpected results in the first verification. Return to the final successful situation, select a single variable and run the same test again.

• What step after behavior changed?
• Does the previous setting come back completely?
• Does the problem continue in another layer?

Safety and continuity notes

If you have auto-renew or cron definition, just follow the next planned work or not the first work. Set up a visible alert channel for uninstructed tasks.

Return to the final successful situation instead of adding new settings in the unforeseen situation. Check the records at the trading time and repeat the same test with one variable.
