Explanation:
To generate an SSH key pair on UNIX and UNIX-like platforms using the ssh-keygen utility:

$ cd $HOME
2. Run the ssh-keygen utility, providing as filename your choice of file name for the private key:
$ ssh-keygen -b 2048 -t rsa -f filename
The ssh-keygen utility prompts you for a passphrase for the private key.
