SSH access to hosts

Hello

Just checking that apart from the use of the vMA and PowerCLI I can also use SSH to connect directly to each host?

I'm sure I read that somewhere some time ago but can't find the article or the blog now.

Thanks in advance.

Jeremy

Hi Jeremy,.

Yes, you can use SSH to connect to each host

Thank you

  • Simple Question SSH Access-List

    I am allowing SSH access for all of our Cisco devices and you want to restrict access to all the following ip addresses: 192.168.200.1 - 192.168.200.50.  I forgot the exact configuration of access list to achieve this.  The subnet is 24 and I don't want the whole subnet - seulement.1-. 50.

    Thank you

    Thomas Reiling

    Hello

    If you use ssh, make sure that you have a domain name, host name and a rsa key is generated.  Assuing you have done this, the command vty ACL and following line will do the trick.  Note that the host 1-50 list is not on a subnet barrier.

    To get it exactly

    access-list 1 remark MANAGEMENT ALLOW
    access-list 1 permit 192.168.200.0 0.0.0.31

    access-list 1 permit 192.168.200.32 0.0.0.15

    access-list 1 permit 192.168.200.48 0.0.0.1

    host access-list 1 192.168.200.50

    access-list 1 refuse any newspaper

    It would be a good idea to put it on a limit, however, so the following would be much simpler and easier to read.

    access-list 1 remark MANAGEMENT ALLOW
    access-list 1 permit 192.168.200.0 0.0.0.63

    access-list 1 refuse any newspaper

    Apply the class of access on the vty lines and authentication, I would put something there too.

    line vty 0 4
    access-class 1
    entry ssh transport

    password Bonneau

    That should do it.

    Good luck!

  • SSH access to PIX

    Hello

    I have a PIX 515. I set up SSH access to the external interface. But if I access denied with connection error.

    Invalid message type

    I set up a user name with privileg password all. Siftware is Version 6.2.

    Access with PDM works very well.

    someone an idea?

    Thank you

    First of all you have todo the foillowing

    hostname XXXXXXXX

    Domain XXXXXXXX

    passwd XXXXXXX (this is the password used to authenticate Telnet / SSH)

    Then, you create a pair of RSA keys

    CA generates the key rsa 512 (check this command you can have fun with levels of encryption, that is to say 512 or 1204)

    Allow ssh hosts/networks to your PIX

    SSH #ip address or network # #subnet mask # #interface #.

    FOR EXAMPLE

    If my external IP address my 1.1.1.1 and I needed to access your pix, you will need to enter the following command

    SSH 1.1.1.1 255.255.255.255 outside

    If you get the prompt for a user name try pix, I use software very good LSVCCs of terminal.

  • PIX behind Cisco 1841 - need SSH access

    Hello, trying to enable SSH access to PIX for some external host clinets.

    What are the correct Acl I need?

    Exactly correct...

    1 - on the router, you must allow incoming TCP 22 (ssh) to your PIX on the external interface of the router and also allow the flow back of the PIX inside interface of the router.

    2. - to the PIX you must generate rsa keys and save them.

    CA generates the key rsa 1024

    CA save all

    3 - on the pix you will need to allow ssh acccess to you outside of the interface

  • Esxi SSH access and locking mode

    If SSH Busybox shell access has been disabled, is there a point to activate the lock mode?

    Thank you in advance.

    While you can have SSH access disabled, vCLI remote access and access PowerCLI is still possible, unless the lock mode is activated.

    If you enable the lock mode, all remote management of the ESXi hosts (whether you use vSphere Client, vCLI/vMA or PowerCLI) must firstly be connected via vSphere server.

    I hope this helps.

  • Change of SG 200-18 - management - VLAN / telnet/ssh-access?

    Hello

    We have a switch SG200-18 that should be used as a switch of working group in our environment (SW

    Version 1.1.1.8). In collaboration with CLI on big and mid range Cisco gear during the past two decades, I have a hard time to understand what follows on the SG200:

    (o) I want to change the management VLAN by default '1' to the management - VLAN used in our environment. Of course, I created this vlan in SG200-config, however when it comes to assign the management IP and VLAN management interface in the advancement of the corresponding film under "Interface IPv4-> management VLAN" selectable is the default "1". see screenshots (closed)

    So, how to define a management VLAN 1 different?

    (o) how to enable telnet/ssh-access the SG200-18 - I'd be much more comfortable with a CLI environment ;-)

    Thank you very much in advance for your help,.

    -ewald

    Hello Ewald,

    Sx200 series switch does not currently offer a CLI option. Have this feature if the Sx300 and 500 series.

    What about chaning the vlan management, you have two options.

    (1) changes the vlan by default under management VLAN > Default vlan settings. This will change all the ports and the management vlan.

    (2) adds a port as a port untagged in the new VLAN. Once this is done, make sure that something is connected to this port, like a computer. Now you should be able to change the vlan management. (This is done to prevent locking)

  • Can't ssh ESXi 5 host

    I had to do a strengthening of security on a host computer and now I can't ssh in.  I can go back to what I did, but I want to clarify what line in the sshd_config file is the cause.  I'll list out what I have:

    The SSH server is enabled and running under Firewall and ssh and ESXi shell is running on the host computer in the security profile

    I can connect to the host via the HP Onboard Administrator, both the shell and the DCUI

    I use putty and I put the 3DES encryption cipher selection policy and I tried to tell the version of the SSH 2 Protocol only, I went back with only 2 and just selection 2

    I can connect to the host directly with root and with an admin account, that set up the shell and DCUI

    I know that root cannot ssh in the host since PermitRootLogin is set to no, I'm getting my secondary account

    I immediately receive an error "The network connection closed unexpectedly Server", so it's going to stop until I can grasp anything.

    Finally, the ESXishelltimeout is 900 seconds

    I don't know what the sshd_config fie since I edited it's just before I had this problem.

    Thanks for any input.

  • SSH access ESXi 4.1.0 fails

    Hi all

    I have a problem with SSH access on my server ESXi 4.1.0. The problem is that it keeps it all the time.

    Precesely more, I go to the tab "Configuration", "Safety profile", "Properties", "Remote Tech Support (SSH)" and configure the server running (I tried all three options). Then and for a few minutes, I can connect to the server using ssh, both with the root and non-root users. But after a few minutes the ssh server stops.

    I have no idea what's going on. Could you give me a hint to solve this problem?

    Thanls a lot for your help.

    Kind regards

    Agustin

    Hello

    Welcome to the community

    But after a few minutes the ssh server stops.

    Right, this is due to default security setting that stop ssh after a certain time (don't remember what are the exact numbers). If you want to enable SSH permanently you need to go to the screen of the ESX console and enable SSH from there

  • Cann't open web access, ssh connection between host and bridged the VM in network mode

    I have a VMware workstartion 7.0 is installed on a machine XP 64 (192.168.2.44). I have the following virtual machines.

    1 ESX 4.0 (192.168.2.42)

    2 ESX 3.5 (192.168.2.38)

    3. windows server 2003 with vCenter installed. (192.168.2.100)

    4. Windows server 2003 with the roles of DNS and DC. (192.168.2.101)

    I am trying to connect to vCenter or ESX VM of the XP hosting web interface. However I can't get through. but I can ping and I can also telnet to ports 443, 80. Even I can't ssh connection. When I use putty, it is actually connected but no response from the ssh server. Looks like the network connection is there, somehow the server process responds simply not properly once the connection is established.

    BTW, all of them use bridged network, they all 192.168.2.x IPs. I can connect to vCenter, ESX web interface from another computer without problem.

    Just wonder if anyone else has experienced this before. I have tried to search the forum, did not find a similar question.

  • SSH access to ASA

    I can not access our ASA 5505 over SSH from outside. I set this through the ASDM to allow SSH (device management > access management > ASDM, HTTPS, Telnet, SSH). I have added a rule that allows the SSH on the external interface 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0. When I try to ssh with putty, he says 'network connection closed unexpectedly server' when I look at the logs on the ASA, it shows a Built inbound TCP connection on port 22, but then immediately a disassembly TCP connection. It does not show that it is blocked by any rule. Is there something that I am missing about the SSH activation?

    Thank you

    Hello

    In addition to the hosts permitted to SSH for the SAA, you must set the RSA keys for the secure connection.

    In the CLI:

    generate encryption rsa key

    For these keys to work, you should have a name of host/domain configured on the SAA so name (unless you configure a dedicated RSA keys).

    So basically, configure a host name, domain name and generate the RSA key pair:

    hostname NAME_OF_ASA

    NAME_OF_DOMAIN domain name

    generate encryption rsa key

    Accept the default of 1024 and it should work.

    And one more qusetion do you use split tunnel? If yes then you must make the following changes, because your split tunnel is incorrect, in the split tunnel, you have configured the address pool of vpn. Please make the following change:

    no access list SPLIT_TUNNEL standards not allowed 10.0.0.0 255.255.255.0

    Standard access list SPLIT_TUNNEL allow 172.19.88.0 255.255.255.0

  • No SSH access after upgrade to vSphere 4.1

    Hi all

    Just updated my test environment to vSphere 4.1. Everything seems to work, but when I tried to log in using putty (ssh), I got "access denied" on the user account created specially for this purpose. After connecting the host directly using the VI client, I see users "vmware" sitting there. "Grant shell access to this user" is marked. I tried to reset the password, use a more complex password, created another (vmware2) user with shell access enabled. Nothing helps. I have connection using PuTTY and receive "access denied", as if the account does not have access via SSH.

    I have no easy option for now to log on to the console directly, so I can't enable root access for now as well.

    Has anyone seen this?

    It comes to the design change in ESX 4.1. According to the design of new power users only for the Service Console and VMkernel directors can connect to the console using ssh. Users without these privileges cannot connect you to the Service Console.

    The same is captured in the documentation. Please check the "Note" in section "Considerations on the upgrade of the post" Upgrade Guide (http://www.vmware.com/pdf/vsphere4/r41/vsp_41_upgrade_guide.pdf).

    Snip of the Document: -.

    Access service console to other users after upgrade to envisage to grant administrator permissions for
