# ADR 0009: SSH Trust And SSH Proxy ## Status Accepted. ## Decision SSH keys are admin signing identities and ecosystem integration points. SSH is not a geth transport. Future SSH proxy support will carry SSH protocol bytes over authorized Iroh streams, and OpenSSH will still perform normal login auth. ## Consequences Knowing an Iroh EndpointID is insufficient to reach sshd. Geth authorization must allow `ssh_proxy.connect` before any SSH/admin endpoint is opened.
