Warning
Commands that you enter in this interface can render your server inoperable. We strongly recommend that only users with command-line experience use this feature.
The Terminal interface allows you to access an in-browser terminal application for direct command-line access within a cPanel & WHM session.
Note
This interface only appears if both of the following conditions are true:
- You possess shell access.
- Your hosting provider enables the SSH Access & Terminal feature in WHM’s Feature Manager interface (WHM >> Home >> Packages >> Feature Manager).
For information on how to identify and contact your hosting provider, read our How to Identify Your Hosting Provider documentation.
This feature only appears if your hosting provider’s server profile enables it.

Before you can access the terminal application, you must read and accept the warning notice. Click I understand and want to proceed.

Terminate a session
When you end a session in the Terminal application, it terminates access to the interface’s terminal window. To open another session, click Reconnect.
