Managing SSH Access for a Resource in a Cloud Stack

Some Oracle Cloud resources can be accessed through the Secure Shell (SSH) protocol by using SSH keys. You typically provide a public key when you initially create these resources, but you can also use Oracle Cloud Stack to add more keys to an existing resource in your cloud stack.

Use the web console to add SSH keys to a resource in a cloud stack.

  1. Sign in to the Oracle Cloud Stack console and navigate to the Stacks page.
  2. Click the stack’s name.
  3. Click the Resource menu icon menu to the right of the resource you want to update.
  4. Select SSH Access.

    The SSH Access page is displayed.

    Note:

    Some cloud resources, such as Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Object Storage Classic containers, are not associated with SSH keys.
  5. Click Add New Key.
  6. Choose one of these options:
    • Select Upload a new SSH Public Key value from file and then click Browse to add a new SSH public key from an existing file.
    • Select Key Value and then paste the new public key value in the text area.
  7. Click Add New Key.
  8. To return to the Stack Details page, click the name of your stack in the bread crumb trail at the top of the page. Or click Stacks to return to the Stacks page.
