window opens.

the Break Sequence field. Descriptions and break sequences are limited to 64 characters. Field
numbers 0-9 are available for up to 10 break sequences.
To send a break sequence:
1. From an SSH Passthrough session, enter the escape sequence for the break sequence definition
in the following format:
^Ecl[break sequence number 0-9]
For example: ^Ecl5
2. The break sequence is sent to the target device and a confirmation message appears.
-or-
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.
\f Form-feed \ooo Octal representation of a character (where
ooo is one to three octal digits)

\t Tab ^cControl character (c is “and”ed with 0x1f)
