How to Safely Add a Server Multiple Times in Ezeelogin Using Custom Keys

Overview: This article describes how to securely add multiple servers in Ezeelogin using custom SSH keys to enhance security and prevent unauthorized access.

When managing servers in Ezeelogin, you might need to add a server multiple times with the same IP address, particularly if you are dealing with multiple SSH users. To ensure security and prevent unauthorized access, follow these steps:

Method 1: Use a Custom Key Pair for Each Server

To enhance security and avoid unauthorized access, always use a custom key pair for the server. This helps protect against unauthorized users who might try to re-add servers with a global public key.

Steps: 

1. Generate a custom SSH key pair for the server.
2. Add the server to Ezeelogin using the private key and passphrase. 
3. Click Save to complete the addition of the server.
