The following figure illustrates how to use PuTTY to establish an SSH session with a managed
device, using the SSH proxy port on the Ranger Gateway.
Figure 29-5. Ranger Gateway with PUTTY with IP Address Aliasing
The steps to establish a connection, in this case are:
1. Enter the IP address or hostname of the target device (
2. Select the protocol to be used (SSH in this example).
3. Enter the configured SSH proxy port value (4822 in this example) in the Port field.
4. Click the Open button to establish the SSH session.
The IP address aliasing approach for SSH proxy has the following advantages:
•
It can be used in cases where the Ranger Gateway software is installed on a server with an
operating system that does not support GVI.
•
It does not require a SOCKS-enabled SSH client or SOCKS shim.
The main disadvantage of the IP address aliasing technique is the administrative effort required to
add and maintain IP address aliases for all managed devices on the Ranger Gateway server. Another
concern is that operating systems may limit the number of IP address aliases that can be defined. As
a result, this technique may not be able to support the required number of managed devices for some
applications.
