Using ssh to Connect to the Server Command Line

You can log into either ELAP server from any terminal using a ssh (Secure Shell) utility.

Note:

If your terminal does not already have ssh installed, PuTTY is a free ssh utility for Windows that you can download from the web.

Use the following procedure to ssh to the server command line.

From a command-line prompt on your terminal, enter the following command to start a secure shell session with an ELAP server: ssh <username>@<server_IP_address>

where <server_IP_address> is the IP address of the server and <username> is either of the following:

  • ELAPconfig—for accessing the ELAP text interface, enter the ELAPconfig username and the password provided by your system administrator. For more information about the ELAP text interface, see Accessing the ELAP Text Interface.

  • syscheck—for runing the syscheck utility, enter syscheck as the username and syscheck as the password. For more information about running syscheck from this interface, see Running syscheck Using the syscheck Login.
