SSH Client Login to External Servers
StarOS supports public key authentication for SSH/SFTP access from the StarOS gateway to external servers.
You configure this feature by generating SSH client key pairs and pushing the client public key to external
servers
By default StarOS only supports username-password authentication to external servers.
Note
