SecureCRT 7.1 brings tiled sessions to Mac and Linux versions, adds an option to set up dependent sessions for connecting with jump hosts, and extends file transfer options with Kermit support. Productivity improvements include the ability to send a button bar command to all sessions and to optimize data transfer speed with a new send delay option.
Here are some of the new features in SecureCRT 7.1:
Tiling for Mac and Linux
Session tiling is now available on Windows, Mac, and Linux. Sessions can be tiled or cascaded to compare the contents of two or more sessions; use the chat window to send commands to all sessions and see the resulting output.
Dependent session option
Link a session to an SSH2 session that it depends on, which allows connection to a jump host before connecting to other sessions.
Kermit support
Support for the Kermit protocol provides an additional way to transfer files.
Button bar enhancements
Press SHIFT+<click> on a button to send a button bar command to all connected tabbed or tiled sessions.
New character send delay option
A character send delay option to wait for a text prompt allows data to be sent as fast as the system can handle, rather than using a fixed time delay.
Support for SHA1 in RSA signatures
Support for SHA1 in RSA signatures, in addition to MD5, allows X.509 certificates to be used in FIPS mode.
Integration with SecureFX for Mac and Linux
With the availability of SecureFX for Mac and Linux, integration between SecureCRT and SecureFX on Mac and Linux is now possible.
