Chapter 2 Enabling Remote Access to the ACE
Directly Accessing a User Context Through SSH
Directly Accessing a User Context Through SSH
As the global administrator, from the Admin context, you can configure a user
context and enable direct login access to that user context from a remote SSH
session. To configure the ACE to provide direct access to a user context from SSH,
perform the following steps:
Step 1 Create a user context by entering the following command:
host1/Admin(config)# context C1
host1/Admin(config-context)#
See the Cisco 4700 Series Application Control Engine Appliance Virtualization
Configuration Guide.
Step 2 Associate an existing VLAN with the user context so that the context can receive
traffic classified for it by entering the following command:
host1/Admin(config-context)# allocate-interface vlan 100
See the Cisco 4700 Series Application Control Engine Appliance Routing and
Bridging Configuration Guide.
Step 3 Generate the SSH host key pair by entering the following command:
host1/Admin(config-context)# ssh key rsa1 1024
generating rsa1 key
.....
generated rsa1 key
See the “Generating SSH Host Key Pairs” section.
Step 4 Change to the C1 context that you created in Step 1 and enter configuration mode
in that context by entering the following commands:
host1/Admin(config-context)# do changeto C1
host1/C1(config-context)# exit
host1/C1(config)#
Only users authenticated in the Admin context can use the changeto command.
