gcloud: SSH into a virtual machine instance.
$ gcloud compute ssh ${user}@${instance}
try on your machine
This command is used to establish an SSH connection to a Google Cloud virtual machine instance using the gcloud command-line tool.
The command syntax is as follows:
gcloud compute ssh
: This is the command to initiate an SSH connection to a Google Cloud VM.${user}
: This is a placeholder for the username or account name that is authorized to access the VM instance. It should be replaced with the actual username.${instance}
: This is a placeholder for the name or unique identifier of the VM instance. It should be replaced with the actual instance name or ID.
Once you replace ${user}
and ${instance}
with the appropriate values, executing this command will open an SSH connection to the specified VM instance, provided that you have the necessary SSH keys configured and the required permissions to access the instance.
