SSH into EC2 Instance
SSH into Amazon EC2 instance.
I fell for mobile apps, cloud, and IoT. I love learning and eating.
Step 1. Go to your EC2 dashboard and click the instances then click your newly created instance by tapping on its instance ID.
Step 2: You should be able to see the details of that instance. To be able to execute commands on this instance. Click connect button on the top right corner.
Step 3: There are several options to connect to this instance provide.
- Use a web interface in case you do not have an ssh client. It opens up a terminal to execute your commands.
Use session manager
ssh client
serial console
As you can see we are provided with a public IP address which we can use to always connect to it.
Step 4: In this case, we shall choose an ssh client. We are provided with a public DNS
Step 5: In our terminal, first we will change the permissions of our key.
chmod 0400 webkey.pem
Then we can shh using
ssh -i webkey.pem ec2-user@54.197.167.2
Voila you have bee able to ssh into our ec2 instance.
