新 VPS 到手第一步做什么?开机必做清单First Steps After Getting a New VPS: Essential Setup Checklist

作者:

刚开通的 VPS 默认配置并不安全,公网一上线就被全网扫描。到手先按这份清单过一遍。

开机必做清单

  • 改 root 密码 / 配密钥:默认密码要立刻改(passwd),更推荐直接配 SSH 密钥登录
  • 系统更新apt update && apt upgrade -y(Debian/Ubuntu)或 yum update -y(CentOS)。
  • 开防火墙:只放行用得到的 端口(SSH、80、443),其余拒绝。见 安全加固
  • 改 SSH 端口(可选):换掉默认 22,能大幅减少扫描噪音。
  • 设时区 / hostnametimedatectl set-timezone Asia/Shanghai
  • 小内存机加 swap:512M/1G 内存的机建个 1–2G swap 防 OOM。
  • 关 root 密码登录:密钥配好、确认能登上后再关,别把自己锁门外。

提醒

改 SSH 端口 / 关密码登录前,务必先确认新方式能连上,再关旧的——很多人就是这一步把自己锁在外面。

配好后建议给新机做一遍 体检测试

A freshly provisioned VPS has an insecure default configuration — the moment it’s online it will be scanned by automated bots across the internet. Run through this checklist as soon as you get access.

Essential First-Boot Checklist

  • Change the root password / set up SSH keys: Change the default password immediately (passwd). Better yet, set up SSH key-based login instead.
  • System updates: apt update && apt upgrade -y (Debian/Ubuntu) or yum update -y (CentOS).
  • Enable a firewall: Only allow ports you actually need (SSH, 80, 443); block everything else. See security hardening.
  • Change the SSH port (optional): Moving away from the default port 22 significantly reduces scan noise.
  • Set timezone / hostname: timedatectl set-timezone Asia/Shanghai.
  • Add swap for low-memory VPS: For machines with 512MB or 1GB of RAM, add 1–2GB of swap to prevent OOM crashes.
  • Disable root password login: Only do this after confirming you can log in via SSH key — don’t lock yourself out.

Important Warning

Before changing the SSH port or disabling password login, always verify the new method works first, then disable the old one — many people lock themselves out at this exact step.

Once configured, it’s a good idea to run a health-check benchmark on the new machine.
