Mac:

  • Press Cmd + Space
  • Type "Terminal"
  • Press Enter

Linux:

  • Press Ctrl + Alt + T
  • Or search for "Terminal" in applications

2. Connect via SSH

Command:

ssh root@YOUR_SERVER_IP

Example:

ssh root@172.31.0.2

3. Enter Password

When prompted:

root@172.31.0.2's password:

Enter the password you set during instance creation.
