Calculate RSA key fingerprint

Question

I need to do the SSH key audit for GitHub, but I am not sure how do find my RSA key fingerprint. I originally followed a guide to generate an SSH key on Linux.

Answer 1

Google Compute Engine shows the SSH host key fingerprint in the serial output of a Linux instance. The API can get that data from GCE, and there is no need to log in to the instance.

I didn't find it anywhere else but from the serial output. I think the fingerprint should be in some more programmer-friendly place.

However, it seems that it depends on the type of an instance. I am using instances of Debian 7 (Wheezy) f1-micro.
