This topic tell you how to establish a Secure Shell (SSH)
connection with the management module.
To log on to the management module
using SSH, complete the following steps:
-
Make sure that the SSH service on the network-management
workstation is enabled. See your operating-system documentation for
instructions.
-
Make sure that the SSH server on the BladeCenter® management
module is enabled. See the BladeCenter Advanced Management Module
User's Guide for instructions.
-
Start an SSH session to the management module,
using the SSH client of your choice. For example, if you are using
the cygwin client, from a command prompt on the network-management
workstation, type ssh ip_address
(where ip_address is
the management module IP address), and press Enter. For the first
connection to the management module, use the default IP address of
the management module; if a new IP address has been assigned to the
management module, use that one instead.
Note: The factory-defined
static IPv4 IP address is 192.168.70.125, the default IPv4 subnet
address is 255.255.255.0, and the default host name is MM
xxxxxxxxxxxx,
where
xxxxxxxxxxxx is the burned-in MAC address. The MAC address
is on a label on the management module, below the IP reset button.
See
IPv6 addressing for initial connection for
information about determining IPv6 addressing for initial connection.
-
Type the management-module user ID when you are prompted.
At the password prompt, type the management-module password. The user
ID and password are case sensitive and are the same as those that
are used for management-module web access. The default management-module
user name is USERID, and the default password is PASSW0RD (note the
number zero, not the letter O, in PASSW0RD).
The CLI command prompt is displayed. You can now enter commands
for the management module.
