+
+- `endpoint`: SSH endpoint of the host where the KVM instance is running.
+- `sshTimeoutSeconds`: (Optional) Number of seconds Harvester allows for the SSH connection to be established. The default value is `30`. When the value is `0`, the timeout function is disabled.
+- `virshConnectionURI`: (Optional) URI used when running `virsh` commands on the endpoint host. For information about configuring this field, see [Local hypervisor URIs](https://libvirt.org/uri.html#local-hypervisor-uris) in the libvirt documentation.
+
+When configuring the secret, you can include the authentication credentials that are used to log into the source system via SSH.
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: v1
+kind: Secret
+metadata: 
+  name: example-kvm-credentials
+  namespace: default
+stringData:
+  "username": "user"
+  "password": "password"
+  "privateKey": "pem-encoded-private-key"
+```
+
+As part of the reconciliation process, the controller runs a test `virsh` command on the specified endpoint via SSH before marking the source as ready.

 ### VirtualMachineImport
 The VirtualMachineImport CRD provides a way for users to define a source VM and map to the actual source cluster to perform VM export/import.
