Application Scenarios
When purchasing an ECS running Linux, you can choose to authenticate users trying to log in to your ECS with the SSH key pair provided by KPS. When purchasing an ECS running Windows, you can choose to obtain the password used to log in to your ECS from the key file provided by KPS.
Logging In to a Linux ECS
If your ECS runs Linux, you can use a key pair to log in to the ECS. For details, see Elastic Cloud Server User Guide.
- Key pairs created or imported on the ECS console
- Key pairs created on or imported to the KPS console
The two types of key pairs only differ in the ways they are imported.
Obtaining the Password for Logging In to a Windows ECS
If your ECS runs Windows, you need to obtain the login password using the private key of a key pair. For details, see the Elastic Cloud Server User Guide.
- Key pairs created on or imported to the ECS console
- Key pairs created on or imported to the KPS console
The two types of key pairs only differ in the ways they are imported.
