InfoConnect for Airlines
Set up SSH Connection
Walkthroughs > Set up Secure Connections > Set up SSH Connection

This sample shows how to create a InfoConnect Open Systems session that connects through the Secure Shell (SSH) protocol.

To create an SSH connection 

  1. In Visual Studio, create a new Console Application project and add references for the following InfoConnect assemblies. (Depending on your version of Visual Studio, these can be found either on the .NET tab or under Assemblies | Extensions.)
    Attachmate.Reflection
    Attachmate.Reflection.Framework
    Attachmate.Reflection.Emulation.OpenSystems
  2. Replace all the code in the Program.cs file with the following code.           
    Set up SSH Connection
    Copy Code 
    using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
using Attachmate.Reflection.Framework;
using Attachmate.Reflection.Emulation.OpenSystems;
using Attachmate.Reflection.UserInterface;
namespace CreateSSHSession
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            //Start a visible instance of InfoConnect or get the instance running at the given channel name
            Application app = MyReflection.CreateApplication("myWorkspace", true);

            //Create a terminal for an Open Systems session
            ITerminal terminal = (ITerminal)app.CreateControl(new Guid("{BE835A80-CAB2-40d2-AFC0-6848E486BF58}"));

            //Disable autoconnect and then disconnect so the default settings can be changed
            terminal.AutoConnect = false;
            terminal.Disconnect();

            //Set the terminal to use secure shell
            IConnectionSettingsSecureShell conn = (IConnectionSettingsSecureShell)terminal.ConnectionSettings;
            terminal.ConnectionType = ConnectionTypeOption.SecureShell;

            //Specify the host name or IP address, port, and user name.
            conn.HostAddress = "yourHostAddress";
            conn.SSHPort = 22;
            conn.UserName = "yourUserName";

            //Make the session visible                 
            IFrame frame = (IFrame)app.GetObject("Frame");
            frame.CreateView(terminal);

            //Connect with the new SSH settings
            terminal.Connect();
        }
    }
}
  3.  Change the hostName and UserName variables for your system.
