## Prerequisites
22+
23+
Before you can successfully SSH to your Azure Operator 5G Core, you must:
24+
25+
1. Install `kubectl`. `kubectl` is the Kubernetes command-line tool that allows you to manage Kubernetes clusters.
26+
27+
1. Copy the kube.conf file from its source to the ~/.kube/config directory. You can copy the file using scp (secure copy) or any other secure method.
28+
29+
## Connect to an Azure Operator 5G Core Preview network function using SSH
30+
31+
1. Obtain the IP address provided to the cfgmgr service's load balancer. Enter the following ```kubectl``` command or use the cfgmgr load balancer IP address specified during deployment:
32+
33+
`kubectl get svc -n fed-<nf_name>` \
34+
where <nf_name> is the name of the network function (for example, smf).
35+
36+
1. Use the cfgmgr load balancer IP address to SSH into the network function and configure it:
37+
38+
`ssh admin@<nf_cfgmgr_svc_lb_ip>` \
39+
where <nf_cfgmgr_svc_lb_ip> is the cfgmgr load balancer IP address for the network function.
40+
41+
1. Use the `config` command to enter config mode and configure the network function.
