MacBook Pro M2 Max: Process to SSH from MacOS (iTerm) to Windows 11 VM on Parallels

[IanL11]

MacBook Pro:
Apple M2 Max
32 GB Memory
Ventura 13.0 (22A8380)

Parallels Desktop For Mac: Version 18.3.1 (53614)

Instructions to re-create Issue:
- On Mac, build a fresh Windows 11 VM in Parallels Desktop
- After installation is complete and Windows 11 opens, go to settings snd search Password, and set a password for your user.
- Restart Windows 11
- Login prompt should accept the password you just made
- Login
- Open Powershell as administrator
- Paste all of these commands

```
Get-WindowsCapability -Online | ? Name -like 'OpenSSH*'
Add-WindowsCapability -Online -Name OpenSSH.Client~~~~0.0.1.0
Add-WindowsCapability -Online -Name OpenSSH.Server~~~~0.0.1.0
Get-WindowsCapability -Online | ? Name -like 'OpenSSH*'
Start-Service sshd
Set-Service -Name sshd -StartupType 'Automatic'
netstat -nao | find /i '":22"'
Get-NetFirewallRule -Name *OpenSSH-Server* |select Name, DisplayName, Description, Enabled
New-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\SOFTWARE\OpenSSH" -Name DefaultShell -Value "C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe" -PropertyType String -Force
if (!(Get-NetFirewallRule -Name "OpenSSH-Server-In-TCP" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue | Select-Object Name, Enabled)) else
```

- Exit Powershell
- Open PowerShell NOT as administrator
- Run the following commands

```
whoami
Get-NetIPAddress | Format-Table
ssh <user name>@localhost
```

- your password should work to ssh into your own machine through localhost.
- Exit
- Run commands again to get IP address
```
Get-NetIPAddress | Format-Table
```

- Open terminal on your MacOS

use ssh <username>@<IP address from the windows IP command from above>

This procedure works perfectly on my MacBookPro Intel Processor with Parallels Desktop for Mac (Intel)

On MacBook Pro M2 the terminal command hangs until the timeout after 120 seconds.
