Requirements for Connecting Embedded Linux Devices

OpenSSH is used the for connections to remote embedded Linux devices during deployment and debugging. The OpenSSH suite is not delivered with Qt Creator, so you must download it and install it on your development PC.

There are several alternative OpenSSH downloads available. For example, the Git Windows installation package comes with the OpenSSH clients. For more information, see Git Downloads.

For more information how to configure Qt Creator for OpenSSH and embedded Linux devices, see Connecting Embedded Linux Devices.
