Remote Access for Linux Accounts

You can log in remotely as a Linux user(either sysadmin or a local user) using ssh.

Note

For security reasons, it is recommended that ONLY admin level users be allowed to to the nodes of the . Non-admin level users should strictly use remote or remote web GUIs.

Specifying the floating IP address as the target establishes a connection to the currently active controller; however, if the floating IP address moves from one controller node to another, the ssh session is blocked. To ensure access to a particular controller regardless of its current role, specify the controller physical address instead.

Note

Password-based access to the root account is not permitted over remote connections.
