Note: We always recommend a system administrator defer to the
vendor’s official documentation on credential creation. Please follow the vendor’s
instructions for configuring the device for access with an ssh key, and then use the
LiveAssurance WebGUI to store the Private key in the relevant Credential
Profile.
In order for LiveAssurance to run its full set of discovery and interrogation scripts, a SSH user with a role of administrator needs to be used to connect your device. It is highly recommended that a generic username is created for auditing and security purposes.
