## How to Connect to the Command-Line Interface Using SSH

Before You Begin

- Perform the hardware setup as described in the hardware setup documentation.

- Apply standby power to the server by connecting AC power to the system power supply. See Server Connections for the location of the power connectors.

1. Connect the server to the Internet with an Ethernet cable connected to the server's RJ-45 NET MGT Ethernet port.

   See Server Connections for the location of the RJ-45 NET MGT port.

2. Using a client system, access a command line and establish a Secure Shell (SSH) connection to the service processor’s IP address with the following command:

   `ssh -l root` sp_ip_address

   For example, to connect to the SP with the DHCP-assigned IP address of 129.144.82.20, type the following command:

   `ssh -l root 129.144.82.20`

3. Log in to the ILOM.

   The default user name is `root` and the default password is `changeme`.
