HOWTO log on to your Vera using SSH.
Contents |
Prerequisits
- Vera 1 or 2 hardware
- A client to acces your Vera (desktop or laptop running Windows)
- An open-source SSH application called PuTTY to be found here [1]
- For Linux based clients you could use "OpenSSH" or "Rbrowser" to be found here [2] or here [3]
Intro
For many operations you need acces to the shell of your Vera. For this reason Vera supports SSH (Secure SHell) on port 22.
Getting acces to your Vera is not something that is easy at first.
Therefore you can follow these instructions in support of other How To's to get root acces to your Vera's shell.
Instructions
- After you have downloaded the program and installed it, run PuTTY.
To get shell acces to your Vera do this;
1. Under <Host Name> type the IP address of your Vera (for example: 192.168.1.24), leave Port number 22 alone, if needed, change connection type to SSH (default) and click <Open>.
2. At Login type:
root
hit <Enter>
The password you need is located on the label under your Vera unit assigned to "WiFI Pass".
3. Type the password and hit <Enter>
You now should have access to your Vera's Root directory and it should display something like this:
BusyBox v1.15.3 (2010-06-10 18:19:49 PDT) built-in shell (ash) Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.
