This section provides guidance on managing SSH authorized keys within the SIMP environment.
When enabled, SSH authorized keys are both stored and retrieved directly from LDAP.
See Also: :ref:`Managing Users with LDAP <Managing LDAP Users>`
If not using LDAP, or in addition to LDAP, SSH authorized keys can be placed in
:file:`/etc/ssh/local_keys/<USERNAME>`. This file location is controlled by the
:pupmod:`simp/ssh` Puppet module and can be changed by setting the
ssh::server::conf::authorizedkeysfile
parameter in :term:`Hiera` or your
:term:`ENC`.
