SSH Connection to Access the QuickStart Image
In addition to serial terminal interface, the Advantech QuickStart Image also supports
remote access via SSH connection. Secure Shell (SSH) is a TCP/IP service that provides a
secure mechanism for remotely logging in to the system either over local network or over
Internet from another system.
The SSH server is started automatically as Ubuntu starts up and Putty (or any other SSH
client) can be used to establish a connection.
In our example, the LAN port (device eth0_1) on the FWA-T011 and the LAN port on the user
platform have been connected through a patch cable.
Both platforms’ IP addresses need to be located in the same subnet.
In this example, the IP address of user platform LAN port has been set up as
192.168.1.3
.
Using the serial console, configure the IP address of eth0_1 on FWA-T011 as
192.168.1.2
.
# ip addr add 192.168.1.2/24 dev eth0_1
Ping 192.168.1.3 from the Linux shell to make sure the basic IP address setup is correct and
the LAN port of the user platform is reachable:
# ping 192.168.1.3 -c 5
PING 192.168.1.3 (192.168.1.3) 56(84) bytes of data.
