Issue/Introduction

Is it possible to use Key file Type ED25519 while configuring RA FTP Agent or IG FTP Agent ?

Environment

Release : 21.X

Component : RA FTP/IG FTP

Resolution

The IG FTP Agent replaces the RA FTP Agent . It is recommended to use IG FTP versions currently available in download section of support site. Once you have installed the IG FTP Agent, you will not need the old RA FTP Agent anymore. It is not possible to run both FTP Agents side-by-side

RA FTP Agent does not support ED25519. However, IG FTP Agent 21.1+ supports ED25519 because IG FTP Agent 21.1 uses JSCH_0.2.17+.     Automic will use JSCH - Java Secure Channel. JSCH has a feature ED25519. It will support below . 

JSCH support (SSH-2.0-JSCH_0.2.17)
