View source for Configure Linux machine with custom SSH client configuration

==Introduction==

This guide explains how to create custom static configuration for SSH client on a Linux machine. Instead of using command line options from the terminal a custom configuration file can be created.

==HOW TO==

The file /etc/ssh/ssh_config contains commented out options for an SSH client. These can be used as an example for a custom ssh config. Go into the subdirectory /etc/ssh/ssh_config.d/ and create a new file. In this file specify the ip address/hostnames for this configuration to apply to. Under this include all configuration options.

==EXAMPLE==

##Configuration for solinno network devices

Host *.solinno.co.uk

: IdentityFile ~/.ssh/pinky_solinno</br>
: Port 2251
