    • receiveNewHostKeys

      void receiveNewHostKeys(ClientSession session, Collection<PublicKey> hostKeys)
      Invoked when new keys have been received and verified.

      If this method updates the known_hosts file or other key database with the new keys, it is recommended to do so in a separate thread to avoid blocking the calling thread.

      Parameters:
      session - the ClientSession that received the keys; can be used to figure out which server sent these keys (via the session's host config entry or server address)
      hostKeys - the verified host keys received; never null and never containing null; may contain host certificates
