Last update:2024-08-28 16:24:05

Operation Scenario

The edge cloud host provides three methods of remote login: VNC remote login, console SSH remote login, and local SSH login. If you cannot connect to the instance using remote connection software such as Xshell, you can try to log in to the instance through the remote login function of the console.

Prerequisite

  • You have successfully created an instance and it is running normally.
  • You have obtained the login information of the instance. If you forget the password, you can reset it on the console.
  • For local SSH login, you need to pre-install remote connection software such as Xshell on your local machine.

Operation Steps

Log in via console VNC

1. Log in to the Edge Cloud Host console, and click [Instance Management] in the left navigation bar.

2. Select the instance you want to log in to, and click [Remote Login] in the operation options on the right.

3. Select the standard login method (VNC), and click [Login Now].

4. Enter the VNC connection password and click [OK]. The VNC connection password will be prompted for the first login. Please keep it properly. If you forget the password, you can click [Change VNC Connection Password] and follow the prompts to reset it.

5. In the pop-up dialog box, enter the user name after “login” and press Enter.

6. Enter the password after “Password” and press Enter to complete the login.

Login in via console SSH

5. In the pop-up dialog box, enter your user name and password, and click [Login In].
