All of the screenshots that follow are from PuTTY 0.62.
Create an SSH login session if the intent is to log in to an EAS Linux (target) VM and execute Linux shell commands. The SSH login session in this example will be for the SF DEV WEB VM (San Francisco data center, DEVelopment environment, eas WEB server, Virtual Machine). In the screenshots that follow, sensitive information has been redacted, and the screenshots themselves illustrate the key values that should be entered in the PuTTY Configuration dialogs.

The appropriate IP addresses will be provided by an EAS administrator for any server connections that need to be created. |
1 Run PuTTY.
2 Under the Session category, enter the IP address of the target VM in the Host Name (or IP address) field, and specify port 2241 (or port number 22 for the newer EASX machines) in the Port field. Also confirm that the connection type is "SSH".
...
4 The remainder of the configuration consists of default values, but if additional configuration is required, then "Chapter 4: Configuring PuTTY" should be consulted.
The following login session names should be used to maintain consistency with standard EAS nomenclature. The login session name for this example (eas-sf-dev-web) is highlighted in bold font in the table below.

Database administrators are likely to only be interested in the database machines, so in that case, they will only need to create this subset of all of the possible EAS SSH login sessions:
|
5 Return to the Session category to save this login session. Enter the login session name in the Saved Sessions field, and then press the Save button.
