6. Click Create. The Create SSH User Key page opens.
7. Enter the appropriate information for each of the fields.
   • Name. Enter a name for the key. This name is for your reference and is never displayed to users.
   • Type (RSA by default). Select the type of key, DSA or RSA, that you want to generate.
   • Passphrase (optional). Enter a passphrase to encrypt the key.
   • Key size. Select the key size for the key. A higher key size creates a more secure key, but takes longer to generate.
