SSH Reference Manual
The name of the known host to be frozen. 
INFO KNOWNHOST 
This command provides information about a single known host or a set of known hosts in the SSH2 key store. It has the 
following syntax: 
INFO KNOWNHOST [<system-user-name>:]{<knownhost-name> | *} [, DETAIL] 
The individual attributes have the following meaning and syntax: 
<system-user-name> 
A valid GUARDIAN user who owns the known host in the SSH key store. If <system-user-name> is omitted, either the 
user being set in a previously issued ASSUME USER command or the issuer of the ALTER KEY command will be used 
as the default. If <system-user-name> is specified, it MUST be followed by a ':' to separate it from the known host name. 
<knownhost-name> 
The name of the known host owned by the current user. A '*' as part of the known host name will be interpreted as 
wildcard character and information about all known host names matching the wildcard character will be displayed.
