You have to login to the machine somehow to change the port... how did you change the port? Do you have firewall that blocks connections on 2222? I assume you specified port ssh -p2222 to connect to?

I change port to 2222. Then I restart. I logout and login with new port 2222 but unsuccess. May be 2222 was blocked. I don't know what to do. Please help – Đinh Văn Kiệt Aug 01 '16 at 08:11

Use nmap and scan your host to check if port 2222 is open and sshd is listening. If not, you need to disable firewall and try again. – agilob Aug 01 '16 at 08:12

So login to Plesk, access root and change the port. Nothing to worry about. – agilob Aug 01 '16 at 08:19

I scan VPS with nmap and I don't see port 2222. Port 22 is closed – Đinh Văn Kiệt Aug 01 '16 at 08:26

@ĐinhVănKiệt I havent used Plesk for years now, there is a tool that allows you to login to shell as root from web-browser. It will give you same permissions as doing ssh and login on root. Search for terminal/emulator/shell... – agilob Aug 01 '16 at 08:44
