KnownHostKey

This class represents an SSH2 host key that belongs to a specific SSH2 managed node.

This enables NFM-P server to detect when the SSH2 host key is the same or different. When the key is different a security breach alarm is raised to indicate the key has changed. A NFM-P admin user can take the following actions:

  1. Accept the key: New SSH2 keys have been generated from the node, then the new key presented by the node can be trusted. This key object is deleted.
  2. Reject the Key: The new key cannot be trusted, because no new keys have been generated from the node. This requires further investigation we might experience a real security breach. This key object should not be deleted.
public class KnownHostKey

Properties
keyStatus The key status indicates whether the key announced by the server is the same (active) or a new server key is detected. When a new server key is detected an alarm is raised and the SSH2 connection is not automatically accepted by NFM-P. User intervention is required in order to accept a new key(different from the one in the DB).
