Configuring connections to NonStop
The Network Connections preferences page provides a central location where you can add and
configure network connections to NonStop systems. NSDEE manages information for connecting
to NonStop systems using named connection configurations, where the names take the form:
system_name_or_IP (user_ID_or_alias)
You can create any number of these configurations. Each configuration specifies the protocol you
want to use to connect (SSH/SFTP or Telnet/FTP) and any optional settings specific to the protocol
you choose. You can share these configurations between workspaces using export and import
wizards.
The connection configurations you create are available to you via combo boxes in project creation
wizards, project properties, and various tools. Figure 19 (page 64) shows an example of a new
project wizard with a combo box containing three separate connection configurations.
