Exclusively for troubleshooting purposes, you can access the SPS host using SSH. Completing the Welcome Wizard automatically disables SSH access to SPS. Re-enabling it allows you to connect remotely to the SPS host and login using the root user. The password of the root user is the one you provided in the Welcome Wizard.

Caution:
Accessing the One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) host directly using SSH is not recommended or supported, except for troubleshooting purposes. In such case, the One Identity Support Team will give you exact instructions on what to do to solve the problem. For security reasons, disable SSH access to SPS when it is not needed. For details, see "Enabling SSH access to the One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) host" in the Administration Guide. |
The following encryption algorithms are configured on the local SSH service of SPS:
Key exchange (KEX) algorithms:
diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha256
Ciphers:
aes256-ctr,aes128-ctr
Message authentication codes:
hmac-sha2-512,hmac-sha2-256
GET https://<IP-address-of-SPS>/api/configuration/local_services/ssh
Cookie name | Description | Required | Values |
---|---|---|---|
session_id | Contains the authentication token of the user | Required |
The value of the session ID cookie received from the REST server in the authentication response, for example, a1f71d030e657634730b9e887cb59a5e56162860. For details on authentication, see Authenticate to the SPS REST API. Note that this session ID refers to the connection between the REST client and the SPS REST API. It is not related to the sessions that SPS records (and which also have a session ID, but in a different format). |
The following command lists the configuration options.

Element | Type | Description | ||
---|---|---|---|---|
key | string | Top level element, contains the ID of the endpoint. | ||
body | Top level element (string) | Contains the configuration options of the SSH server. | ||
access_restriction |
JSON object |
Enables and configures limitations on the clients that can access the web interface, based on the IP address of the clients. | ||
allowed_from |
list |
The list of IP networks from where the administrators are permitted to access this management interface. To specify the IP addresses or networks, use the IPv4-Address/prefix format, for example, 10.40.0.0/16. | ||
enabled |
boolean |
Set it to true to restrict access to the specified client addresses. | ||
allow_password_auth | boolean | Enables password-based authentication, so administrators can remotely login to SPS. If this option is set to False, SPS ignores every other option of this endpoint. | ||
bruteforce_protection | boolean | Enables protection against brute-force attacks by denying access after failed login attempts for increasingly longer period. Enabled by default. | ||
enabled | boolean | Enables the SSH server, so administrators can remotely login to SPS. If this option is set to False, SPS ignores every other option of this endpoint. | ||
listen | list | Selects the network interface, IP address, and port where the clients can access the web interface. | ||
address | JSON object |
A reference to a configured network interface and IP address where this local service accepts connections. For example, if querying the interface /api/configuration/network/nics/nic1#interfaces/ff7574025754b3df1647001/addresses/ returns the following response: { "body": { "interfaces": { "@order": [ "ff7574025754b3df1647001" ], "ff7574025754b3df1647001": { "addresses": { "1": "10.40.255.171/24", "@order": [ "1" ] }, "name": "default", "vlantag": 0 } }, "name": "eth0", "speed": "auto" }, "key": "nic1", "meta": { "first": "/api/configuration/network/nics/nic1", "href": "/api/configuration/network/nics/nic1", "last": "/api/configuration/network/nics/nic3", "next": "/api/configuration/network/nics/nic2", "parent": "/api/configuration/network/nics", "previous": null, "transaction": "/api/transaction" } } Then the listening address of the local service is the following. nic1.interfaces.ff7574025754b3df1647001.addresses.1 This is the format you have to use when configuring the address of the local service using REST: "address": "nic1.interfaces.ff7574025754b3df1647001.addresses.1" When querying a local services endpoint, the response will contain a reference to the IP address of the interface in the following format: "address": { "key": "nic1.interfaces.ff7574025754b3df1647001.addresses.1", "meta": { "href": "/api/configuration/network/nics/nic1#interfaces/ff7574025754b3df1647001/addresses/1" } }, | ||
port | integer |
The port number where this local service accepts connections. | ||
