Defining Quick Connect Options (Windows)

To start a new connection with the Quick Connect option, do the following:

Select the Quick Connect option (toolbar or File menu) to establish a completely new Secure Shell connection that can be operated independently of any other clients and connections. You can connect to an entirely new remote host computer and still keep the old connection to a different host open.
The Connect to Server dialog opens, containing the values defined in the default configuration file. Click Connect.

Use the Settings dialog (see Saving Settings) to set the most commonly used options and save them in the configuration file.

When you need to establish a new connection, click the Quick Connect button to connect to a new host with the default settings. When connected, you can modify the settings to match your exact requirements for this particular host and save the settings as a host profile. See Profiles.
