# ssh-agent plugin
This plugin starts automatically `ssh-agent` to set up and load whichever
credentials you want for ssh connections.
To enable it, add `ssh-agent` to your plugins:
```zsh
plugins=(... ssh-agent)
```
## Instructions
To enable **agent forwarding support** add the following to your zshrc file:
```zsh
zstyle :omz:plugins:ssh-agent agent-forwarding on
```
To **load multiple identities** use the `identities` style, For example:
```zsh
zstyle :omz:plugins:ssh-agent identities id_rsa id_rsa2 id_github
```
To **set the maximum lifetime of the identities**, use the `lifetime` style.
The lifetime may be specified in seconds or as described in sshd_config(5)
(see _TIME FORMATS_). If left unspecified, the default lifetime is forever.
```zsh
zstyle :omz:plugins:ssh-agent lifetime 4h
```
