SSH Permission denied for Mininet

Question

I am new to SDN and was trying to learn Mininet. I have installed debian(64-bit) and Mininet on Virtual Box. When I try to connect Mininet Vm from Debian I have to run the following comamnd :

ssh -X [email protected] 

It asks for mininet password, but after entering the default mininet password it shows an error

Permission denied please try again

Both my debian and Mininet VM have same IP address. Kindly guide how to eliminate the SSHerror. Also is it fine having same ip address for two different VM, is the SSH error a result of this ? Thanks

Answer 1

In the VirtualBox settings under the tab Network click on Advanced then Port Forwarding and add a rule with name: ssh, protocol: tcp, host port: 3022 and guest port: 22. Then execute:

sudo ssh -p 3022 [email protected]
