    4 Configuring your SSH client to use keys instead of password
     4ORBIT access machines are configured to allow login only by public key authentication, which let users log into consoles without the need to use their user's passwords. This requires users to configure their SSH client to use their private key instead of password and to register their public key(s) with the ORBIT infrastructure. This page describes the procedure for generating the key pair and configuring client side for selected platforms.
