Since Edge Gateway are secured devices SSH service is not installed and PuTTY or similar cannot be used.
Basically PuTTY is an executable client program that you can install on Windows or Linux. It is the most simplest terminal program you might think of providing a connection to a remote server across protocols such as SSH or telnet.
In the Linux world is it most common to use PuTTY to connect to a Linux OS that has the service SSH enabled. You can download PuTTY from here.
After you have started PuTTY you can connect to a remote server by specifying its IP address and the port across the data will be sent across. The standard port for a SSH connection is port 22 but it may vary depending on your remote server.
