Introduction
The Carbon cluster is reachable from networks outside Argonne only through SSH tunneling or VPN. Either way has advantages and disadvantages. This page explains how to connect through an ssh tunnel.
Overview slides (pdf) and specifics for Carbon are detailed elsewhere. The PuTTY setup for both steps is explained below.
Note that the PuTTY Configuration panel is somewhat idiosyncratic to operate, notably regarding the concept of Sessions. Numerous screenshots on Google provide general guidance.
Configuring
The following steps need to be performed once for each workstation you wish to use to access Carbon.
Connecting
To connect to Carbon is a two-step process:
- Establish the tunnel.
- Connect through the tunnel.
The first step needs to be performed once per your Windows session.
The next step can be repeated as often as desired.
