Access Paths Quick Reference

Quick reference for all infrastructure access methods

✅ Working Access Methods

Proxmox ML110 (192.168.1.206)

# Web UI
https://192.168.1.206:8006

# SSH
ssh -i ~/.ssh/id_ed25519_proxmox root@192.168.1.206

# API
curl -k -d "username=root@pam&password=..." https://192.168.1.206:8006/api2/json/access/ticket

Proxmox R630 (192.168.1.49)

# Web UI
https://192.168.1.49:8006

# API (assumed working)
curl -k -d "username=root@pam&password=..." https://192.168.1.49:8006/api2/json/access/ticket

Virtual Machines

Console Access (All VMs):

• Proxmox Web UI → Select VM → Console
• Status: ✅ Available

Network Access (All VMs):

• Ping: ✅ Working
• Port 22: ✅ Open
• IPs: 192.168.1.60, 192.168.1.188, 192.168.1.121, 192.168.1.82

❌ Not Working (With Fixes)

SSH to VMs

Status: Authentication failing
Fix: Access via Proxmox console and add SSH key manually

Steps:

1. Proxmox Web UI → VM → Console
2. Login as ubuntu
3. Run:

   mkdir -p ~/.ssh
   chmod 700 ~/.ssh
   echo "ssh-ed25519 AAAAC3NzaC1lZDI1NTE5AAAAIBGrtqePuHm2bJLNnQbuzYrpcXoHHhwWv5s2RmqEezbz proxmox-access" >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
   chmod 600 ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
   

SSH to R630

Status: Authentication failing
Fix: Enable SSH and add SSH key (see SSH_ENABLE_QUICK_GUIDE.md)

QEMU Guest Agent

Status: Not running in VMs
Fix: Install via console:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y qemu-guest-agent
sudo systemctl enable qemu-guest-agent
sudo systemctl start qemu-guest-agent

🔄 Alternative Access Strategies

Strategy 1: Console-First

• Use Proxmox console for VM access
• Configure everything manually
• Then enable SSH

Strategy 2: API-Only

• Use Proxmox API for all operations
• Deploy via cloud-init
• Minimal SSH dependency

Strategy 3: Hybrid

• Console for setup
• SSH for automation
• API for monitoring
