If you want to access a web server or telnet server without first adding a bookmark to the My Bookmarks list, use the Connection Tool instead. For more information, see “Using the Connection Tool”.
You can add frequently used connections as bookmarks. Afterward, select any hyperlink from the Bookmarks list to initiate a session.
To add a bookmark
1. In the Bookmarks widget, select Add.
2. Enter the following information:
Name
Enter the name to display in the Bookmarks list.
Type
Select the abbreviated name of the server application or network service from the drop-down list.
Location
Enter the IP address or FQDN of the server application or network service.
For RDP connections, you can append some parameters to control screen size and keyboard layout. See “To start an RDP session”.
Description
Optionally enter a short description. The description displays when you pause the mouse pointer over the hyperlink.
SSO
Single Sign On (SSO) is available for HTTP/HTTPS bookmarks only.
Disabled — This is not an SSO bookmark.
Automatic — Use your SSL VPN credentials or an alternate set. See the SSO Credentials field.
Static — Supply credentials and other required information (such as an account number) to a web site that uses an HTML form for authentication. You provide a list of the form field names and the values to enter into them. This method does not work for sites that use HTTP authentication, in which the browser opens a pop-up dialog box requesting credentials.
