You can also set up a personalised ssh config file in the ~/.ssh
directory of the user employed to establish the sftp/ssh connections:
#BOF
# /home/myuser/.ssh/config
# Host parameter is any arbitrary string.
# sftp remoteuserid at first.site.com ==
Host site1
HostName first.site.com
User remoteuserid
IdentityFile /home/myuser/.ssh/id_rsa
# sftp otheruserid at second.other.com ==
Host site2
HostName second.other.com
User otheruserid
IdentityFile /home/myuser/.ssh/rsa_vendor2
#EOF
Then just run 'sftp site1' or 'sftp site2' to connect as required.
