# ssh -i ~/.ssh/<mykey> <user>@<license-server-ip>
where- <mykey> is the private key of the key-pair you associated with your license server instance
(for an on-premises VMware installation where login with username/password is allowed, it is not needed) - <user> is the user for interactive login associated with your license server instance (e.g., opc on OCI, centos for a CentOS instance on AWS, or the custom user on your VMware virtual machine or you physical server;
for an instance installed from a prepackaged Charon supported marketplace image, use sshuser) - <license-server-ip> is the ip address of your license server system
- <mykey> is the private key of the key-pair you associated with your license server instance
- Become the privileged user and run the v2c program.
- Become the root user:
# sudo -i
