Create session to local MAC OS shell

Create session to local MAC OS shell

Dear Support,

Thanks for your time to review my question,

just for a quick question, may I know how to create a session to open a local shell?

just like secure CRT session protocol "Local Shell", the use is that I believe that IT guys might need to telnet/ssh to different servers/routers or switches.

and also in some circumstances, hard to create in the left panel one by one, so I am always open a terminal to local shell in MAC OS, just similar to Windows open a power shell in local, or Linux open a terminal BASH shell in local, so that I can ssh/telnet to different equipments by one session simply.

I have search posts, not get the answer yet, please help to take a look on this issue,

thank you very much!

Hi,

Outside of enabling "Remote Login" on your Mac and connecting with SSH Shell to localhost, we do not support a purely local shell (like Terminal.app) in RDM Mac.

It's something we talked about in the past, but it never got much traction.

Best regards,

I've been looking / hoping for this feature as well, so I hope that it can be implemented in an upcoming release.
