What is Cloudflare Argo tunnel SSH?

Argo is responsible for connecting a server tot eh Cloudflare network. Furthermore, it only exposes services and ports with the Cloudflare network. In other words, we can host anything inside the network boundary without opening firewall ports, thereby exposing the services directly to the internet. This is done via the Cloudflare network over a tunnel.

Cloudflare Access helps reduce the strain on the VPN with a different approach to authenticating internally-managed applications. It also ensures web apps, remote desktops, SSH connections as well as other protocols with Cloudflare network are secure.

We can expose SSH from our origin with the following steps:

  1. To begin with, we have to download the corresponding cloudflared for our origin server.
  2. Then, run the following command on our origin and choose the corresponding domain:
     cloudflared tunnel login

    As a result, we will get a private key certificate for our origin server with the Argo tunnel. Additionally, it also creates tunnels for as many subdomains as well require. The command also gives us the certificate location.

  3. After that, it is time to create an Access policy.
  4. Next, we need to have a configuration file ready.
  5. Now, we will install the service by looking in the /etc/cloudflared directory and start an Argo Tunnel.
    sudo cloudflared service install
  6. Finally, we will be able to SSH to the device via key authentication or password. By now the origin is connected to the Cloudflare network.
