ssh-keygen is a Unix utility that is used to generate, manage, and convert authentication keys for Secure Shell (ssh) authentication.
Description
With the help of the ssh-keygen tool, a user can create passphrase keys for both SSH protocol version 1 and version 2.
ssh-keygen creates RSA keys for SSH protocol version 1 and RSA or DSA keys for use by SSH protocol version 2.
These keys differ from keys used by GNU Privacy Guard.
