Simply connect with local prompt or address bar
You can connect to a remote computer quickly by entering a command at the local prompt or at the Address bar. You can get the local prompt by closing the Sessions dialog box at startup.

Enter one of the following commands at the local prompt:
- [C:\~]$ telnet hostname
- [C:\~]$ ssh hostname:22
- [C:\~]$ rlogin hostname
- [C:\~]$ open session_name
Note
If the remote computer doesn't use the default port, you need to provide a port number at the end of the command.
To connect to a remote computer at the Address bar:
- Enter one of the following commands into the Address bar:
- hostname_or_ip
- telnet://hostname
- ssh://hostname
- rlogin://hostname
- Press the Enter key or click Go.
