Overview

The ssh client verifies the identity of the host it connects to. If the remote host is not known to your system, the ssh client interactively asks you to accept the host: 

The authenticity of host '[192.168.1.8]:22 ([192.168.1.8]:22)' can't be established.
ECDSA key fingerprint is 83:59:aa:33:10:98:48:f9:12:96:c4:e3:c2:75:50:b6.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes
