Note:
Note: If you have not connected to this particular server before, SSH prompts you to
accept the server’s host key. If you save this key when prompted, you will not be
prompted if you connect again later. If you don’t save the key, PuTTY prompts
you the next time you connect to this server.
When connecting though the services laptop interface, if you save the host key, the
host will be identified as 192.11.13.6. If you later connect to a different server through
its laptop interface, this new host also appears as 192.11.13.6, but it will have a
different key. You get a prompt in this case because it appears that the host key has
changed.
