Previously, only user name and password authentication was supported for host installation and upgrade. With this update, public key authentication is now supported. This feature provides a higher level of security, streamlines subsequent authentication, and reduces the possibility of man-in-the-middle attacks by displaying and retaining the SSH public key fingerprint of remote hosts.
Currently we use user/password authentication for host-deploy, ovirt-node upgrade.
We use public key authentication for ovirt-node approval.
I would like we support both user password and public key authentication.
Suggested implementation:
ADD HOST
Host: _______________
Authentication:
<x> Password: _____________
< > Public key
Key: _______read only text of public key_____________
RE-INSTALL/APPROVE
Host: ______readonly_________
Authentication:
< > Password: _____________
<x> Public key
Key: _______read only text of public key_____________
