For details about how to set user authentication, see
In SSH connections, an SSH host key is used. An SSH host key is
automatically generated when an instance of LPAR manager with a
firmware version of 02-05 or later starts for the first time. In addition,
you can re-create the key through operation. 2,048-bit fixed RSA keys
can be created as SSH host keys. The length of SSH host keys that can
be created is fixed at 2,048 bits and the key type is RSA.
