SSH access from Internet
Contents |
[edit] Ensure SSH Enabled
- Goto the Services tab and the Services sub-tab on the Web Interface
- Enable "SSHd" is under the section titled "Secure Shell"
- 'SSH TCP Forwarding' does not need to be enabled if you just want to connect from the outside to your LAN.
- Choose an appropriate port (The default is 22, but it is recommended that you change it to a non-standard port above 1024 for security reasons. Remember the port number, as you will need to enter it into your SSH client in order to connect to the router)
- You can activate (less secure) password authorization and/or (recommended) private/public key authorization. More information about generating the keys can be found here: [[1]].
- Save
[edit] Enable Remote Access
- Goto the Administration tab and the Management sub-tab on the Web Interface
- Enable "SSH Management" under the section titled "Remote Access"
- Enter the same port number as specified under (4) above. This opens the port in the firewall.
- Save
- Reboot Router
Now you will be able to connect to your router's WAN IP from the internet using an SSH client such as PuTTY.
[edit] Disabling Remote Access
If at any time you wish to disable SSH access from the WAN,
- Goto the Administration tab and the Management sub-tab on the Web Interface
- Disable "SSH Management" under the section titled "Remote Access"
- Apply Settings
[edit] SSH Password
- When asked for the username, enter root (even if you changed username in web interface)
- When asked for the password, enter your router's password
