use your favorite SSH client (Most prefer PuTTY ) to access your ESX host.

you could also try a reboot of your ESX Host

Things u need to know :

make sure enable SSH server in "configuration-->security profile"

ESX default doesn't allow ssh as "root" user. (Create another user & grant shell access)
