Issue

Customer is not able to access the Operations Console, yet needs to enable SSH.
Customer has connection to vmware console, or physical access to the hardware appliance.

Tasks

login to the appliance via console connection.
Enable SSH by starting the sshd service, then adding a rule in the iptables.

Resolution

Commands to type in the bash shell

sudo su - root
iptables -I INPUT 2 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT

After Operations Console is up normally, please make sure to delete the iptables rule that we created.
