+Mac OS has a native command line ssh client that can be used to remotely log into consoles. From the Finder select Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal to open a command line terminal.
+
+==== Generating keys
+Generate the public and private keys using the following command
+{{{
+ssh-keygen -t rsa
+}}}
+
+Follow the prompt to save the keys in the default location, use a passphrase for additional security. Once your keys are saved successfully, a 'randomart' will be generated.
+{{{#!shell-session
+your_username@Macintosh ~ % ssh-keygen -t rsa -C mac

+==== Uploading your public key to you COSMOS account
+ To upload you public key to your cosmos account, do the following:
+ 1. Go to [https://wiki.cosmos-lab.org/cPanel/accountManagement/adminAuthKeys Profile] and sign in with your COSMOS username and password
+
+ 2. Click on "Change My Profile" option in the left side menu
+
+ 3. Click the "Choose File" button next to "Public key file"
+ 
+ 4. Navigate to where your '''public key file''' is stored (typically /Users/your_username/.ssh). Note: because the .ssh folder begins with a period, it is hidden in the file browser by default. You can press "command"+"shift"+"." to show hidden files and folders in the file browser.
+
+ 5. Select the .pub file corresponding to the key you wish to use for COSMOS access
+
+ 6. Click "Open"
+
+ 7. Click the "Update Profile" button
+
+ As a side note, expect to see a default auto generated public key in the list (ends with @internal1). This is used for SSH access between machines inside the COSMOS network. Please do NOT delete this key.

+==== Configuring your SSH client
+ Under normal circumstances, as long as the private key file is located in the /Users/your_username/.ssh/ folder, the command line SSH client will use the correct key when connecting.
+
+ To test your setup, open a command-line terminal and (replacing ''your_orbit_username'' with your own ORBIT username) type:
+{{{
+ssh your_orbit_username@gw.orbit-lab.org
+}}}
+ You should be prompted to enter your key file passphrase and be able to successfully connect.
+
+ Type {{{exit}}} and press the Enter key to end the SSH session.
