Maintenance Mode
This menu [Configuration>General Settings >Maintenance Mode] can be used to assign temporary controlled support access to the system via SSH protocol.
In the first step, to open a connection via SSH, you need to run the Chalange Responce process.
To do this, copy the code from the Challange
field and send it to Sycope support. Then, support will send back a new code, which you should enter in the Response
field. Pressing the Verify
button will start the process of verification and launching the SSH service on the system on which the Sycope application is installed.
To open an SSH tunnel it is necessary to click the Connect
button.
The connection is established using TCP protocol on port 443 to the AWS instance (supportaccess.sycope.com).
After a successful connection, you will see the message "Remote tunnel opened successfully" and under the Disconnect
you will see the value Connection ID.
Connection ID
is a random number identifying a given connection to a specific instance of the Sycope application.
The SSH service is stopped when the set Active time
expires.
The Disconnect
button is used to close the connection tunnel.
The Stop
button stops the SSH service.
