Explanation / Answer

SSH means SECURE SHELL. It provides strong authentication and strong encrypted communication channel

between client and server over a network. SSH is mainly used by network administrators to manage

system,network and aplications by logging into others computer through SSH.

1.) When we do SSH to a server then we are redirected to servers home directory

2.) IFCONFIG command will provide servers ip address ,because after successful SSH we are

now logged in on server machine and one session starts immediately.
