1029 $ sftp public.dhe.ibm.com
The authenticity of host 'public.dhe.ibm.com (170.225.126.18)' can't be
established.
ED25519 key fingerprint is
SHA256:7eCHKMY8cjRJ7vM2NU70s9ETBNSWGYu4/BTCL2q4rCM.
This key is not known by any other names
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no/[fingerprint])? yes
