Which command generates a new Ed25519 SSH key pair?

  • Assh-keygen -t ed25519
  • Bssh-keygen -p ed25519
  • Cssh-keygen -l ed25519
  • Dssh-keygen -y ed25519

Why this is the answer

-t selects the key type, and ed25519 is the modern recommended algorithm. -p instead changes the passphrase of an existing private key.
