I don't think what you're asking for is possible to do as a FreeIPA 
configuration. The documentation describes how to login without 
prompting for passwords, but I think it is still necessary to provide 
the username with AD realm when logging in.

If you're always logging in as the same user to certain machines, you 
could configure a default user in the ssh_config.

Perhaps someone else will have a better answer.
