Refers to SSH to OpenWrt

The following bash aliases are recommended:

  • +ssh-rsa - (optional) Required if the node runs an openwrt older than the branch 23.05
  • ussh - an alias to:
    • Ignore KnownHost files, useful when connecting to the Anygw address 10.13.0.1 or the anygw FQDN thisnode.info
    • Disable StrictHostKeyChecking, useful to reconnect after ugrading to a newer OpenWrt version without keeping settings.
sh
cat << EOF >> ~/.bashrc
alias ssh="ssh -o HostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-rsa -o PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes=+ssh-rsa"
alias ussh="ssh -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null -o GlobalKnownHostsFile=/dev/null -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no"
EOF
source ~/.bashrc

Connect to the device

sh
ussh root@thisnode.info

Once the connection is established the default banners will be printed to the console:
