NAME

       podman-system-connection-add - Record destination for the Podman service

SYNOPSIS

       podman system connection add [options] name destination

DESCRIPTION

       Record ssh destination for remote podman service(s). The ssh destination is given as one of:
        - [user@]hostname[:port]
        - ssh://[user@]hostname[:port]
        - unix://path
        - tcp://hostname:port

       The  user is prompted for the remote ssh login password or key file passphrase as required. The ssh-agent
       is supported if it is running.

OPTIONS

   --default, -d
       Make the new destination the default for this user. The default is false.

   --identity=path
       Path to ssh identity file. If the identity file has been encrypted,  Podman  prompts  the  user  for  the
       passphrase.   If  no  identity file is provided and no user is given, Podman defaults to the user running
       the podman command.  Podman prompts for the login password on the remote server.

   --port, -p=port
       Port for ssh destination. The default value is 22.

   --socket-path=path
       Path to the Podman service unix domain socket on the ssh destination host

   --tls-ca=path
       Path to a PEM file containing the  certificate  authority  bundle  to  verify  the  server's  certificate
       against.

   --tls-cert=path
       Path to a PEM file containing the TLS client certificate to present to the server. --tls-key must also be
       provided.

   --tls-key=path
       Path to a PEM file containing the private key matching --tls-cert. --tls-cert must also be provided.

EXAMPLE

       Add a named system connection:

       $ podman system connection add QA podman.example.com

       Add a system connection using SSH data:

       $ podman system connection add --identity ~/.ssh/dev_rsa production ssh://root@server.example.com:2222

       Add a named system connection to local Unix domain socket:

       $ podman system connection add testing unix:///run/podman/podman.sock

       Add a named system connection to local tcp socket:

       $ podman system connection add debug tcp://localhost:8080

       Add a connection with a custom port:

       $ podman system connection add --port 2222 staging user@staging.example.com

       Add a connection with a custom socket path:

       $ podman system connection add --socket-path /run/user/1000/podman/podman.sock remote-user user@remote.example.com

       Add a connection and make it the default:

       $ podman system connection add --default production root@prod.example.com

       Add a named system connection to remote tcp socket secured via TLS:

       $ podman system connection add secure-debug --tls-cert=tls.crt --tls-key=tls.key --tls-ca=ca.crt tcp://podman.example.com:8443
