The following command opens an ssh connection with the master instance in a cluster with the cluster ID ``j-3SD91U2E1L2QX``::

  aws emr ssh --cluster-id j-3SD91U2E1L2QX --key-pair-file ~/.ssh/mykey.pem

The key pair file option takes a local path to a private key file.

Output::

  ssh -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -o ServerAliveInterval=10 -i /home/local/user/.ssh/mykey.pem hadoop@ec2-52-52-41-150.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com
