Edge2 Remote access

Access a remote terminal with SSH

SSH (Secure SHell) provides secure access to a terminal session on your board.

You can access the terminal of a board remotely from another computer on the same network using the Secure SHell (SSH) protocol.

Connect to an SSH server

Open a terminal window on your computer and enter the following command, replacing the ip address placeholder
with the IP address of the board you are trying to connect to and username with your username, e.g. the default
username is khadas:

ssh <username>@<ip address>

When the connection works, you will see a security warning. Type yes to continue. You will only see this warning the first time you connect.

Enter your account password when prompted. e.g. the default password is khadas.

You should now see the command prompt:

$ ssh khadas@192.168.30.194
Warning: Permanently added '192.168.30.194' (ED25519) to the list of known hosts.
khadas@192.168.30.194's password:
