Use the command line for AAHC

You can access AAHC through its console with the username web-admin. Either enter the default password or make an SSH connection to access the system.

To make an SSH connection, you need to create and use an SSH pair for the web-admin user:

1

Create an SSH pair

Generate an SSH key pair:

Generate key pair

ssh-keygen -t rsa

2

Copy the public key to authorized keys

Append the public key to the authorized keys file:

Copy public key

scp id_rsa.pub ~/.ssh/authorized_keys

3

Move the private key into a remote device

Copy the private key to the remote device (example using scp):

Copy private key to remote device

scp -i id_rsa user@destination_ip:path_in_remote_device

4

Access AAHC from the remote device

SSH into the LogPoint server using the private key:

SSH into AAHC

ssh -i id_rsa_path web-admin@LogPoint_Server_IP

You can change the default password using the passwd command.
