In addition to using the 't2 root' command to open a SSH shell session in the CMD window, it is also possible to use Windows SSH Clients. 
However, rather than simply logging in as root with a password, you can re-use the SHA2 certificate that the t2 provisioning process 
generated and placed in the C:\Users\<user_name>\.tessel folder on your Windows PC. In the steps below, the IP of the Ethernet connection 
to your Tessel 2 is used as the Host IP in the Server group.

1. On the Login tab of Bitvise, locate and select the 'Client key manager' link.
2. Within the Client key manager window, click the Import button.
3. In the Select Client Key Import File dialog, navigate the aforementioned .tessel folder and select the id_rsa file.
4. After selecting Import on the next dialog after double-clicking the id_rsa file, close the Client key manager window.
5. Now select 'Public Key' as the 'Initial method' in the Authentication group, then the certificate from the 'Client key' drop-down.
