iagctl hostkeys add

Add a host key to gateway

Synopsis

This command will add a host key to the gateway known_hosts file. The known_hosts file exists within the app working directory whose location is set by the configuration variable GATEWAY_APPLICATION_WORKING_DIR.

iagctl hostkeys add <host> <key type> <fingerprint> [flags]

Examples

Manually Add a Host Key

Adds a host key to the known host file for the host 10.0.0.1, a key encryption type of ssh-rsa, and a fingerprint of ABC123.

iagctl hostkeys add 10.0.0.1 ssh-rsa ABC123

Manually Add a Host Key with Replace Flag

Adds an ssh-rsa host key for 10.0.0.1, and a key encryption type of ssh-rsa to gateway. Replace a host key with the same host/key type but a different fingerprint if one exists. Without --replace, an error will be thrown if there is a security mismatch.

iagctl hostkeys add 10.0.0.1 ssh-rsa 123ABC --replace
