To access a VM through the CloudStack UI:

Log in to the CloudStack UI as a user or admin.

Click Instances, then click the name of a running VM.

Click the View Console button <img src="images/icon.png" />.

To access a VM directly over the network:
</div><div class="orderedlist"><ol><li class="listitem"><div class="para">
The VM must have some port open to incoming traffic. For example, in a basic zone, a new VM might be assigned to a security group which allows incoming traffic. This depends on what security group you picked when creating the VM. In other cases, you can open a port by setting up a port forwarding policy. See IP Forwarding and Firewalling.
</div></li><li class="listitem"><div class="para">
If a port is open but you can not access the VM using ssh, its possible that ssh is not already enabled on the VM. This will depend on whether ssh is enabled in the template you picked when creating the VM. Access the VM through the CloudStack UI and enable ssh on the machine using the commands for the VMs operating system.
</div></li><li class="listitem"><div class="para">
If the network has an external firewall device, you will need to create a firewall rule to allow access. See IP Forwarding and Firewalling.
