Can't SSH to new SVM management port

NEWNETAPP987 — Thu, 05 Jun 2025 04:16:08 GMT

Hi,

I am setting up a new SVM on Cluster 8.3. I set up a lif and now i can ping that lif remotely. I used the firewall-policy command to give the lif management access. However, I can't ssh to the svm with putty.

I use vsadmin@10.x.x.x but I can't get a response from that lif/port.

Any ideas what else I need to do to enable ssh?

Can you access through existing LIF of this SVM? Or is it first attempt to log in through SVM LIF?
If later, it might be just because of locked account. Please check if you have given password to vsadmin, and vsadmin of this SVM is unlocked.
