SSH Proxy Connection Interfaces
The SSH Proxy is available both in the Single Connect Web GUI, and Single Connect Desktop Client. The architecture developed in the Single Connect SSH Proxy is also available to connect to using other native clients. The configuration to connect to the Single Connect SSH Proxy from these interfaces is outlined below.
The Single Connect Web GUI can be used to establish SSH connections:
- Navigate to Device Management > Device Inventory.
- Search for the device to connect to on the left panel.
- Right-click the desired device and select Open Terminal.
Privileged users can establish SSH sessions by using the Single Connect Desktop Client with the defined authentication and authorization policies. The desktop client can be downloaded from the link in the Single Connect Web GUI login screen.
- Open the Desktop Client and complete the connection settings.
- Log in to the Desktop Client by using the configured settings and search for the device to connect to.
- Double-click the device to initiate the SSH session.
Users can expandable search a device in the Desktop Client.
Users can also use their own preferred SSH clients (PuTTY, MobaXterm, etc.) to connect to their target systems via the Single Connect SSH Proxy. To connect to a Single Connect SSH Proxy:
- Enter the Single Connect IP address as the host IP address and 2222 as the connection port (2222 is the default SSH proxy port, and can be changed by the system administrator).
- After logging in to the Single Connect SSH proxy, press “*” to list all the configured devices for the connection, or type part of the IP address or host name and press enter to search the list.
- Enter the number of the device to establish the SSH connection.
