Have a few computers running Linux Centos 6.4. They are connected to an unmanaged switch, which in turn, is connected to a router (Verzion Fios issue).

What is a good way to "log in" to one of the computers so that I can run commands?

  • Do I need to use SSH, or something different?
  • Since the computers do not have their own public-facing IP addresses, do I need to set up some kind of port forwarding within the router?
  • What is a simple, reliable way to accomplish this?

Thanks so much!
