Are you asking if it supports autokey?  It currently doesn't,
according to the doc there's one symmetric key slot.

I don't manage keys.  In my case anyone that can get past the
firewalls is entitled to talk to the servers and I'm not invested in
mutual authentication as a solution to poor system management.
