Managing your sessions

You access your sessions through the Available Sessions list. These are sessions that your administrator has assigned to you. Click to open the session.

You can have multiple sessions open at a time and easily switch between them using the tabs arranged across the top of the screen. The current session is always the left-most tab and is indicated by a white background and bold text. Each session remains active for 30 minutes.

Use the toolbar to access the various options available to you as you interact with the session. You can disconnect from a session, close the session, turn on Quick Keys, and access other settings. Some options may be only available once your administrator has granted permission.

Using Quick Keys

Click on the toolbar to display Quick Keys. The Quick Key terminal keyboard provides a graphical representation of the keys on a host keyboard and gives you quick access to terminal keys. Click the terminal keys on the Quick Key keyboard to send a terminal key to the host. Hovering over a key provides a tool tip that shows the mapping.

Copying and Pasting

NOTE:Each browser handles copy and paste functions differently and in some cases will not support the use of copy and paste buttons. It is highly recommended that you use keyboard commands for those functions. Although keyboard commands vary depending on your operating system, in Windows they are: CTRL+C to copy and CTRL+V to paste.

To copy from the terminal

Highlight the area on the terminal screen that you want to copy.
Click Copy from the toolbar or use the keyboard command, CTRL+C.

To paste into the terminal screen

Position the cursor where you want to paste content.
Use the keyboard command, CTRL+V, or click Paste from the toolbar. If your browser does not support pasting from the toolbar, you will be prompted to use the keyboard command.

Recording macros for the session

Click the macro icon on the toolbar to start creating your own macros. If you do not see a macro icon, ask your administrator to set the appropriate permissions.

See Creating Macros for instructions on how to record macros.

Logging out

In the upper right corner of the screen, open the drop down list associated with your user name and select Logout to stop working with the host application.
