Deployment options
The project can be deployed in two ways:
| Option | Description | When to use it |
|---|---|---|
| Local | Install on your PC | Development, simulation, and debugging |
| Remote (server) | Install on a dedicated server connected to the KUKA controller | Working with the physical robot |
With remote deployment, you control the server from your PC over an SSH connection.
SSH clients
Choose any of the following applications:
- Termius — cross-platform SSH client with a convenient GUI;
- MobaXterm — multifunctional terminal for Windows;
- PuTTY — classic SSH client for Windows;
- the built-in terminal or command prompt, as described below.
For instructions on configuring Termius, MobaXterm, or PuTTY, refer to their official documentation.
Connection details
IP address: 192.168.21.1
Username: cobot
Password: 12345678
!!! warning "Network requirement" Your PC must be on the same network/subnet as the robot (for example, the KnASU network). Otherwise, the connection cannot be established.
Connecting from the built-in terminal
=== "Linux"
Any distribution can be used. Open a terminal and run:
```bash
ssh cobot@192.168.21.1
```
=== "Windows"
**Windows 10** or later is required for the built-in SSH client. Open **Command Prompt** or **PowerShell** and run:
```powershell
ssh cobot@192.168.21.1
```
The command will prompt for a password:
cobot@192.168.21.1's password:
Enter 12345678. Characters are not displayed while you type; this is normal security behavior. Press ++enter++.
After a successful connection, the server command prompt appears:
cobot@server:~$
