Settings > Configuration > SSH card is used for Secure Shell enable, which provides secure remote communication with the system console. The enabled SSH service provides backup and restore of the system or full restart of Access Commander.

The SSH client needs to know the Access Commander IP address and root user password to connect to the Access Commander Box or virtual machine. The system root user password can be set in Settings > Configuration > SSH card. The root user password is changed in the configuration console, not Access Commander.

The SSH access can also be enabled and managed directly in the Linux configuration console, refer to Linux Settings.
