To manage the required software in your Elastic VPS container, you need to connect to it via SSH. A connection can be made through the dedicated SSH Gate, which provides a single access point for remotely configuring all environments and servers within your account.
The process of SSH access to the Elastic VPS nodes is the same as for any other container on the platform, but provides full root access.
A one-click connection to your VPS container from the platform dashboard without any configuration required.
An SSH connection to the VPS from the console on your local machine. Access is based on your custom SSH key pair.
Note: If you haven’t established a connection via SSH Gate before, you’ll need to perform the following steps beforehand:
- generate an SSH key pair
- add your public SSH key to the dashboard
If you prefer to manage your VPS container using external SSH tools, consider setting upaccess via a public IP address. Regardless of the chosen approach, the provided functionality and management capabilities are the same.
