When you say you have enabled port 22, I presume you mean that it is allowed through your firewall.
E2C is an acronym used for a couple of things: please provide more detail.
Example: http://www.hqmc.marines.mil/e2o/E2C-ExFOB/

General first step:

#1 Have you verified that you can ping the remote (e2c) node? Network path (routing) and addressing is required, ping is one way to verify.

#2 Have you verified that sshd is running on the remote node? Check your process list and sshd configuration please.

#3 Have you checked your netstat report and verified that sshd is listening on port 22 on the remote node, and at the proper address on that node?

Have you checked the screenshot of the instance to make sure that it came back up successfully to the login prompt?
Is it running on a public or private subnet? If on private, have you verified your NAT/Bastion/jumpbox is up and port forwarding is working?
If it's on a public, do you have an elastic IP? If not, have you checked if maybe your IP changed from the reboot?
If you're using AWS DNS to connect, if you don't have an elastic IP, did you check if maybe your AWS DNS has changed?

Dear Sir,

Thanks for your quick response.Instance has elastic ip. I had stopped and restarted instance with no success.
Network at our end has no issues.
Please help me.

Thanks in advance
