== NAME

cryptsetup-ssh - manage LUKS2 SSH token

== SYNOPSIS

*cryptsetup-ssh <action> [<options>] <action args>*

== DESCRIPTION

Experimental cryptsetup plugin for unlocking LUKS2 devices with token
connected to an SSH server.

This plugin currently allows only adding a token to an existing key
slot. See *cryptsetup(8)* for instructions on how to remove, import or
export the token.

=== Add operation

*add <options> <device>*

Adds the SSH token to *<device>*.

The specified SSH server must contain a key file on the specified path with
a passphrase for an existing key slot on the device. Provided
credentials will be used by cryptsetup to get the password when opening
the device using the token.

Options --ssh-server, --ssh-user, --ssh-keypath and --ssh-path are
required for this operation.

== OPTIONS

**--key-slot**=_NUM_::
Keyslot to assign the token to. If not specified, the token will be
assigned to the first key slot matching provided passphrase.

**--ssh-keypath**=_STRING_::
Path to the SSH key for connecting to the remote server.

**--ssh-path**=_STRING_::
Path to the key file on the remote server.

**--ssh-server**=_STRING_::

**--ssh-user**=_STRING_::

*--help, -?*::

== NOTES

The information provided when adding the token (SSH server address, user
and paths) will be stored in the LUKS2 header in plaintext.
