Create System Key

Servers and clients sometimes require system keys to authenticate the connection to the remote system. You can add AS2, FTP, Platform Server, SSH, HTTPS, and SAML system keys through the Create System Key page which can be accessed by clicking Administration > Protocol Keys > system Keys > Create Key.

The following figure shows the Create System Key page:

To create a system key, select a system key type, input the rest of the required information and the optional fields as needed, and click Create.

Note: Some servers (for example, SSH server) do not start until a system key is generated for that protocol.
Note: When system key type is SSH, the signing algorithm defaults to SHA-256.
