What if I have to use key based login from controller to bastion and bastion to app_servers? @krigar

Where do we specify the pem key when we need to use key based ssh logins?

Host 172.16.*
  ProxyCommand           ssh -A -W %h:%p [email protected]

Host *
  ControlMaster          auto
  ControlPath            ~/.ssh/mux-%r@%h:%p
  ControlPersist         15m
  IdentityFile             ~/.ssh/id_rsa

notice the added "IdentityFile" above and the "-A" in the first block that will forward your key to the jumpbox, this setup works for me.
