# Home Assistant Add-on: SSH server
|
||
|
||
## Installation
|
||
|
||
Follow these steps to get the add-on installed on your system:
|
||
|
||
1. This addon is only visible to "Advanced Mode" users. To enable advanced mode, go to **Profile** -> and turn on **Advanced Mode**.
|
||
2. Navigate in your Home Assistant frontend to **Supervisor** -> **Add-on Store**.
|
||
3. Find the "SSH server" add-on and click it.
|
||
4. Click on the "INSTALL" button.
|
||
|
||
## How to use
|
||
|
||
You need enable the port for external access. You can just enter 22 as value or any other
|
||
value like you want. This recommend to add login credentials.
|
||
|
||
To use this add-on, you must have a private/public key to log in.
|
||
To generate them, follow the [instructions for Windows][keygen-windows]
|
||
and [these for other platforms][keygen]. It is possible to set a password for
|
||
login since version 2.0 but for high security use private/public keys.
|
||
|
||
You can not run both variants at the same time. Enabling login via keys, will
|
||
disable password login.
|
||
|
||
1. Add a ssh key to `authorized_keys` or set a `password` in the add-on configuration.
|
||
2. Start the add-on.
|
||
3. Connect to your device using your preferred SSH client and use `root` as
|
||
the username.
|
||
|
||
After logging in, you will find yourself in this add-on’s container.
|
||
The Home Assistant configuration directory is mounted on the path `/config`.
|
||
|
||
Try it out using:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
ha help
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Configuration
|
||
|
||
Add-on configuration:
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
authorized_keys:
|
||
- ssh-rsa AKDJD3839...== my-key
|
||
password: ''
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Option: `authorized_keys`
|
||
|
||
Your **public keys** for the authorized key file. You can authorize multiple
|
||
keys by adding multiple public keys to the list.
|
||
|
||
### Option: `password`
|
||
|
||
Set a password for login. **We do NOT recommend this variant**.
|
||
|
||
### Option group `server`
|
||
|
||
Some SSH server options.
|
||
|
||
#### Option `tcp_forwarding`
|
||
|
||
Specifies whether TCP forwarding is permitted or not.
|
||
|
||
**Note**: _Enabling this option lowers the security of your SSH server! Nevertheless, this warning is debatable._
|
||
|
||
## Network
|
||
To enable ssh access via the network, you need to enter the port number ‘22’ or the port you want to use. This will map that port from the hassio host into the running “Terminal & SSH” container.
|
||
|
||
## Known issues and limitations
|
||
|
||
- This add-on will not enable you to install packages or do anything as root.
|
||
This is not working with Home Assistant.
