SSH Terminal
To connect to an SSH server, OpenSSH client software
needs to be used. On a Windows-based operating system,
a OpenSSH client can be invoked from Window command
prompt or Windows Powershell. To connect to an SSH
server from the Microsoft Windows OS, type the following
command into the Windows command prompt:
ssh [e-mail]
On successful completion of this command, the client will
connect to the SSH server running on the Li-Fi controller.
After successful connection to the SSH server, the SSH
client will be connected to the LiFi CommandLine
application and the command line application will present
the user its command prompt.
The LiFi command Line application provides set and get
commands to retrieve or modify an MIB parameter.
Chapter 8.5 describe the commands supported by the
LiFi command line application.
