How to setup client certificate based auth scanning

I’m kind of new to GSA, I’m running version 21.4.1 of the GSA and need help with authenticated scans against an Ubuntu box that has certificate based ssh and not username and password based ssh. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. The Ubuntu admin is telling me I need to provide him with a certificate. I would’ve thought he would provide me with a certificate…

Thanks
Jack

“man ssh-keygen” that tells you everything you need, please check the documentation how to proceed from there.
