Putty SSH connection timeout

[drchampenstein]

I have direct connection between my Red Pitaya and computer using an ethernet cable.
I can open the Red Pitaya web browser using the .local address and the IP address.
However, I cannot access the Red Pitaya using SSH connection using Putty. Whenever I try and open it nothing happens and the connection times out.
All of the LEDs are fine, updated to latest OS. I'm very new to all of this so there is probably something I'm missing.

Hello drchampenstein,

Thank you for writing on the forum.
Let's start with establishing the SSH connection directly through the CMD.
- Open Windows terminal/command prompt
- enter:

Code: Select all

ssh root@rp-xxxxxx.local

where you replace xxxxxx with the last 6 characters of the MAC address
- The password is:

Code: Select all

root

- It should ask for permission to save the key - confirm it

Then you should be inside the Red Pitaya's Linux.
