The Connect Bar
The SecureCRT connect bar provides a command-based method that allows you to enter and connect to a session or sessions.
The connect bar is accessed via the toolbar or by typing the ALT+R key combination. The connect bar can be displayed or hidden by selecting or deselecting the Connect Bar option on the View menu.
Pressing CTRL+ENTER in the connect bar will open the specified session in a new window.
Syntax Examples
The following is an example of how to open a new connection. The host can be an IP address or a named host. If only the host is specified, the default protocol and port will be used.
[<protocol>://][<user>[:<password>]@]<host>[:<port>]
The following is an example of how to open a specific session.
/S <session name>
The following is an example of how to open connections to the specified sessions in two tabs (in the current window or a new window).
/S <session name> /S <session name>
The following is an example of how to open a connection to <host> using <firewall>
/FIREWALL=<firewall> ssh2://[<user>]@<host>
Using SecureCRT's dependent session option on the command line or in the connect bar (as in the following example), it's possible to link a session to an SSH2 session that it depends on, which allows connection to a jump host before connecting to other sessions.
Both the command line and the connect bar use the normal /Firewall specifier and the firewall will be Session:<session name> with the following syntax.
/FIREWALL=Session:<Session Name> ssh2://[<user>]@<host>
Session: is case insensitive.
