The default hostname for the Pi is raspberrypi, so in your command line app, enter the following and press enter: ssh pi@raspberrypi Note: Certain distributions (like RetroPie) change the hostname by default - for example, the default hostname for RetroPie is retropie, so you'd connect using that in place of raspberrypi. You can quickly check whether your Pi uses a certain hostname by pinging it and trying each hostname: ping raspberrypi You can also connect using your: ssh [email protected].
Once Raspbian is installed and the Raspberry Pi 2 is connected to the local network, it should automatically get an IP address with DHCP and Using ssh on Mac or Linux. Unlike Putty, the ssh command does not support 'HTTP CONNECT', so we need YalerTunnel on this side of the relay, too. Raspberry Pi, irrespective of the operating system you are using, typically comes with a SSH (Secure Shell) daemon running. Being able to SSH into Raspberry Pi can come in very handy On Windows, you could use PuTTY. On Linux or Mac use the following command to initiate an SSH connection.
Where 192.168.X.X is your Pi's IP address. You can obtain your Pi's IP address using the ping command above. Type the password when you see the password prompt. For security purposes you won't see the password as you type. You might encounter a host verification warning that ends with something like this: The authenticity of host 'abc (abc)' can't be established. RSA key fingerprint is 3f:1b:f4:bd:c5:aa:c1:1f:bf:4e:2e:cf:53:fa:d8:59.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? Just type 'yes' and hit enter. This is a security measure to let you know you're trying to connect to a host for the first time. After connecting, the host will be added to the knownhosts file, and you won't see this warning again.
