With the default subnet security list, and without custom Network Security Groups installed, SSH from the command-line or from a tool such as PuTTY can be used to access the command-line of the sshuser user on the Charon-SSP instance. If you select your instance in the instance list and then click on the name, you will see details about your instance including its public IP address as shown below.

...

(warning) Initial management password configuration: before connecting to the Charon-SSW host with the Charon Manager for the first time after the initial installation of your instance you must set the management passwordThis can either be done via the Charon Manager itself (see Connecting with the Charon-SSP Manager) or via the command line as shown below.

Steps to set the management password:

  • Log in to the Charon host using SSH as show above.
  • Become the root user (sudo -i).
  • Change to the Charon Agent utilities directory (cd /opt/charon-agent/ssp-agent/utils).
  • Run the charon-password script (./charon-passwd).
  • Enter and confirm the new management password when prompted.

After this has been completed, you can connect to the host using the Charon Manager with the new management password.

Below, you see sample output of the steps:
