# fdpass-teleport CLI reference

The `fdpass-teleport` binary is used to integrate Machine & Workload Identity with OpenSSH to enable higher performance and reduced resource consumption when establishing SSH connections.

You should not need to manually invoke `fdpass-teleport` and it will automatically be included in OpenSSH configurations generated by the Machine & Workload Identity SSH multiplexer service. For further information, see the [Machine & Workload Identity reference](https://goteleport.com/docs/reference/machine-workload-identity/configuration.md).

## Usage

```
fdpass-teleport <path to mux socket> <connection target>
```

- `<path to mux socket>`: path to the Unix domain socket created by the Machine ID SSH multiplexer service.
- `<connection target>`: the target address to connect to. This is passed to the SSH multiplexer service when establishing the connection.
