How do you log in to a managed host command line after you install QRadar?

Question

Options

• AConnect with SSH to the managed host IP address.
• BConnect with SSH to the host through the QRadar Console.
• CLog in to the managed host, rather than the QRadar Console.
• DA managed host is not accessible after it is added to a QRadar Console.

• C

Explanation

In QRadar's architecture, managed hosts are accessed through the Console via SSH tunneling - you SSH to the Console and then connect to the managed host from there, making B correct. Option A is wrong because managed hosts aren't directly SSH-accessible from outside the deployment; they sit behind the Console. Option C is a contradiction in terms - logging directly into the managed host bypasses the Console's centralized access model, which QRadar doesn't support in standard deployments. Option D is wrong because managed hosts are accessible; the restriction is only on how you reach them.

Memory tip: Think of the QRadar Console as a "jump server" - all roads to managed hosts run through it, not around it.
