Access the virtual machine

The following steps use the Azure CLI in Azure Cloud Shell. If you prefer, you can Install the Azure CLI on your development machine and run the commands locally.

The following steps show you how to configure the Azure virtual machine to allow SSH access. The steps shown assume the name you chose for the solution accelerator is contoso-simulation -- replace this value with the name of your deployment:

  1. List the contents of the resource group that contains the solution accelerator resources:

    az resource list -g contoso-simulation -o table

    Make a note of the name of the virtual machine, the public IP address, and network security group - you need these values later.

  2. Update the network security group to allow SSH access. The following command assumes the name of the network security group is contoso-simulation-nsg -- replace this value with the name of your network security group:

    az network nsg rule update --name SSH --nsg-name contoso-simulation-nsg -g contoso-simulation --access Allow -o table

    Only enable SSH access during test and development. If you enable SSH, you should disable it again as soon as possible.

  3. Update the password for the azureuser account on the virtual machine to a password you know. Choose your own password when you run the following command:

    az vm user update --name vm-vikxv --username azureuser --password YOURSECRETPASSWORD  -g contoso-simulation

  4. Find the public IP address of your virtual machine. The following command assumes the name of the virtual machine is vm-vikxv -- replace this value with the name of the virtual machine you made a note of previously:

    az vm list-ip-addresses --name vm-vikxv -g contoso-simulation -o table

    Make a note of the public IP address of your virtual machine.
