Starting a command-line Secure Shell (SSH) connection
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 Management Module User’s Guide for instructions.
Start a SSH session to the management module using the SSH client
of your choice. For example, if you are using the cygwin client, open a command-line
window on the network-management workstation, type ssh -x 192.168.70.125,
and press Enter. The IP address 192.168.70.125 is the default IP address of
the management module; if a new IP address has been assigned to the management
module, use that one instead.
A command-prompt window
opens.
Type the management-module user ID when 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).
A CLI command prompt is displayed. You can now enter commands
for the management module.
