I remember there is a command to send public key to the remote host that I want. I want to use that feature to send one of my public keys to the other host. How can I do that?

You are looking for
ssh-copy-id. All this command does is create.sshand.ssh/authorized_keysand set their permissions appropriately if they don’t exist. Then it appends your public key to the end of.ssh/authorized_keys.
