SSH Client Known Hosts
The SSH Client Known Hosts are used by all applications that play the role of an SSH Client.
Specifically in Connect Mode. Configuring these public keys are optional but if they exist another
layer of security is offered which helps prevent Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) attacks.

These settings are not required for communication. They protect against Man-In-
The-Middle (MITM) attacks.
SSH Server Authorized Users
The SSH Server Authorized Users are used by all applications that play the role of an SSH Server
and specifically Tunneling in Accept Mode. Every user account must have a Password.
The user's Public Keys are optional and only necessary if public key authentication is wanted.
Using public key authentication will allow a connection to be made without the password being
asked at that time.
Note:
When uploading the security keys, ensure the keys are not compromised in
transit.
