SSH Connect on Webscale Product Documentation

Connecting to Hosts

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Once a host is registered with Webscale, it will be accessible to access over SSH using the Webscale Control Plane as long as the following requirements are met:

Webscale Monitoring Agent (WMA) is running on the host with SSH enabled.
The host’s network allows connections over port 22 from the SSH Connect middleware

On the SSH Connect page, a drawer will list the hosts that have been registered and approved. Clicking a host will initiate a connection with that host and launch a terminal window.

Registering Hosts

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

In order to access a host through SSH Connect, the host must first be registered with Webscale in the appropriate account. This is a two step process (registration followed by approval).

Registering SSH hosts

The first of these steps can be done either through the API directly or via the Webscale Monitoring Agent (WMA) running on the host with SSH enabled.

Note:

To allow SSH access through private networks the IP of the SSH Connector middleware is 3.217.2.82
