Switching to another session
To switch to another active session, type the session number as the first character of a
PortServer II command line. You do not have to press
Carriage Return
after
typing the number.
To go directly from one session to another without using the PortServer II command
line, type the telnet escape character followed by the number of the session you
require. For example, type the telnet escape character followed by
2
to go directly to
the second session.
Type the telnet escape character followed by

sion to the PortServer II command shell.
As a shortcut, you can also toggle between your last two telnet sessions by pressing
Ctrl-] Ctrl-]
.
When you switch between sessions, the current session will continue on the next line
of your screen unless your terminal is capable of multiple screen operation (as
described later in this chapter). You may need to press the
Carriage Return
key
between sessions to see your prompt.
