NOTE: When generating SSH keys, the ‘ssh-keygen’ command will generate two files, a public key and a private key. The public key has a “.pub” extension that should be entered in the “authorized_keys” parameter of your Terraform configuration file. The other file is your private key and is something a user should not share anywhere.
