Use the `validation_create` command to generate cryptographic keys a `rippled` server can use to identify itself to the network. Similar to the [wallet_propose method][], this command makes no real changes, but only generates a set of keys in the proper format.
Use the `validation_create` command to generate [cryptographic keys a `rippled` server can use to identify itself to the network](peer-protocol.html#node-key-pair). Similar to the [wallet_propose method][], this method only generates a set of keys in the proper format. It does not any makes changes to the XRP Ledger data or server configuration.
_The `validation_create` method is an [admin method](admin-rippled-methods.html) that cannot be run by unprivileged users._
You can configure your server to use the generated key pair to sign validations (validation key pair) or regular peer-to-peer communications (node key pair).
You can configure your server to use the generated key pair to sign validations (validation key pair) or regular peer-to-peer communications ([node key pair](peer-protocol.html#node-key-pair)).
**Tip:** For configuring a robust validator, you should use the `validator-keys` tool (included in the `rippled` RPM) to generate validator tokens (which can be rotated) with an offline master key. For more information, see [Validator Setup](run-rippled-as-a-validator.html#3-enable-validation-on-your-rippled-server).
