If you have a server with a Linux operating system, you need an SSH client to connect. There are many different clients in the market in this regard. Some devices also have a terminal tool that you can connect to.

Let's examine the applications you can connect to.

Connecting from a Windows Device

The most popular SSH client for Windows devices is the application called Putty. You can find the official website and download links here.
After installing the application, we run the client.

Type the IP address of your server in the Host Name (or IP address) section. If there is a private SSH port, also log in to the Port section. If a special port is not specified, the standard SSH port on Linux servers is 22.
After entering your information, continue by pressing the Open button. You will be greeted by a black screen. Enter the username on your server and press Enter. It will then ask you for your password. Also enter your password and press Enter. While you enter the password, there is no action on the screen, but what you type is processed on the screen.

Connecting from a MacOS Device

For devices with macOS operating system, you do not need to download any FTP client. As standard, you can perform your transactions with the Terminal application. Open Terminal and follow the instruction below.

ssh username@IPaddress

In this directive, write your username on your server in the username section (such as root, ahmet, veli), and in the IP address section, write the IP address of your server (such as 192.168.1.1). It will then ask you about caching. Continue with the yes answer and enter your password.

Connecting from a Mobile Device

You can use the Termius application, which is available in the application market of both Android and iOS devices. You can go to the application market by clicking here for Android and here for iOS.

After downloading from the application market, you only need to enter your IP, username, password and port information in the required fields. Then, when you click on it, a direct connection will be made.
