burusftp keygen

NAME

burusftp keygen - Generates SSH private key(s)

SYNOPSIS

burusftp keygen --all [<path>]
burusftp keygen [(-b | --bits) <bits>] [(-t | --type) <type>] 
                [(-c | --curve) <curve>] <keyfile>

OPTIONS

  • --all [<path>]
    • Generates default set of keys to path provided. If path is not provided keys will be exported to keys directory inside configuration directory.
    • Default set consists of these keys: ECDSA with NIST P-256 curve, ED25519 and RSA with 2048 bit length
  • -b, --bits <bits>
    • Number of bits in the key to create. Default value depends on host key algorithm (--type).
  • -c, --curve (nistp256|nistp384|nistp521)
    • Curve used for ECDSA key. Default: nistp521.
  • -t, --type (rsa|dsa|ed25519|ecdsa)
    • Host key algorithm. Default: rsa.

EXAMPLES

# Generate set of keys to /config/keys
burusftp keygen --all

# Generate set of keys to D:\keys
burusftp keygen --all "D:\keys"
  
# Generate 4096-bit RSA key and save it to key.ppk file
burusftp keygen key.ppk

# Generate 512-bit DSA key and save it to key.ppk file.
burusftp keygen -t dsa -b 512 key.ppk

# Generate ECDSA key with NIST P-521 curve and save it to key.ppk file.
burusftp keygen -t ecdsa -c nistp521 key.ppk
