vSIM and ssh access

Hi I have vSIM SROS running in GNS3.
I have created a tap0 intreface on my linux host (same host as my GNS3 is running on) and i have connected the tap0 intreface to cloud in GNS3 which is linked ot the mgmt interface (e0 in GNS3) of vSIM.
I have configured a /30 between the tap0 and e0 on vSIM, i can ping between the two but from the host when i try to ssh to vSIM i cannot login to vSIM using a ssh session.
How do i configure or set ssh on vSIM so that I can login into the vSIM using ssh session from the host PC.

I would like to use ansible to confiure vSIM and this requires ssh session to vSIM.

I am assuming you can ssh using the default admin/admin account.

thanks for help on this....

Hi,

Cannot tell about GNS as I don't really remember the set up and I am using virsh/virtual_briges since a while now. I do have ssh access but not through mgmt interface. I connect my PC through virtual bridge to one of the network ports on vSIM. Then some ospf/isis to spread interface IP around my lab devices and some static on PC side to point correct traffic to system IPs. With this set-up, Ansible finds it's way to proper nodes.

For your case, maybe some filters block your access through mgmt iface so you can check those.

cheers,
