To get started, enter the following commands: ```bash sudo systemctl enable ssh sudo systemctl start ssh ``` To confirm it works on a different device, enter the following command replacing the `<user>` and `<ip-address>` for the ones that your system requires: ```bash ssh <user>@<ip-address> ``` You will get a prompt to enter your password for that user and on success you should be able to manage this system. --- ## References - “Ssh(1) - Linux Manual Page.” Accessed May 10, 2022. <https://www.man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/ssh.1.html>.
