{% tab title="Antman" %}
Prior to antMan 0.10.0 You are prompted to enter your root username.
Now you have access to the EdgeLinux command line.
{% endtab %}
{% tab title="SSH" %}
You can SSH to the edgeLinux OS in the following ways
**Using the private IP address of the antsle**
```
ssh root@x.x.x.x
```
**Using antsle\_name.local**
```
ssh root@myantsle.local
```
replace 'myantsle' with the name of your antsle
**With an .antsle.us subdomain**
You can [get an antsle.us subdomain in antHill](https://docs.antsle.com/system/secure-https-access-to-antman)
```
ssh root@yoursubdomain.antsle.us
```
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

### SSH Tools
In case you are not familiar with `ssh`, it's very easy to use with many [excellent tutorials](http://support.suso.com/supki/SSH_Tutorial_for_Linux) out there.
**MacOS and Linux**: SSH is built-in and run with the terminal\
**Windows**: For Windows you can use packages like [PuTTY](http://www.putty.org/) or [MobaXterm](https://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/).
Or try WSL, aka: Bash on Ubuntu on Windows. This seems to work well but will not resolve .local domain names.
