The SSH client indicates that the break sequence is invalid or contains a syntax error. You can
correct the error and resend the break sequence.

Transferring read/write access

Only one user at a time can have read/write access to a shared SSH Passthrough or Avocent Session
Viewer session. The first user who opens the session has read/write access. If that user exits a
shared session, read/write access is granted to a randomly selected user who is sharing the session.
A user with read-only access can enter a command to obtain read/write access.

To obtain read/write access:

1.

From a shared SSH Passthrough or Avocent Session Viewer session where you have read-only
access, enter the following command:

^Eca

2.

The user with read/write access receives a message that read/write access has been transferred
to the specified user.

3.

You receive a message that the user has lost read/write access.

You now have sole read/write privileges to the SSH Passthrough or Avocent Session Viewer
session. Transferring read/write access generates DSView 3 software system events.

Disconnecting a session

To disconnect an SSH session:

1.

From an SSH Passthrough session, enter the following command:

^Ec.

2.

Your session is closed. If you had read/write access to the session, read/write access is granted
to a randomly selected user who is sharing the session.

Displaying session output

If a data log was created for the SSH Passthrough session, you can enter a command to display the
last 30 lines (limited to 16384 characters) of the data log on the SSH client. The last 30 lines may
include previous SSH sessions, but will only display target device output, not user actions.

NOTE: To display session output, data logging must be enabled and the user must have access rights to unit.
See Data Logging on page 185 and User Access Rights on page 239.

To display session output:

1.

From an SSH Passthrough session, enter the following command:

^Ecr
