Logging in to iDRAC7 Using Public Key Authentication

You can log into the iDRAC7 over SSH without entering a password. You can also send a single RACADM command as a
command line argument to the SSH application. The command line options behave similar to remote RACADM since the
session ends after the command is completed.
For example:
Logging in:
ssh username@<domain>
or
ssh username@<IP_address>
where IP_address is the IP address of the iDRAC7.
Sending RACADM commands:
ssh username@<domain> racadm getversion
ssh username@<domain> racadm getsel
