Regenerate All Keys
The Key Type/Status/Action table will temporarily disappear while the VelaSync
regenerates the keys. The Host keys are generated in the background. Creating
RSA and DSA keys, each with 1024 bits length, typically takes about 30 seconds.
Keys are created in the order of RSA, DSA, ECDSA, ED25519. VelaSync will gen-
erate all 4 host keys, RSA, DSA, ECDSA, and ED25519.
Note: If the unit is rebooted with host key creation in progress,
or the unit is booted and no host keys exist, the key generation
process is restarted. The key generation process uses the pre-
viously specified key sizes.
