SecureCRT^® for Mac

Network professionals can run SecureCRT on their Mac systems, or switch back and forth easily between Mac, Linux, and Windows. All platforms deliver:

• Quality emulation
• Standards-based security
• Powerful session management
• High-productivity interface
• Time-saving automation tools

• Keyword Highlighting

  Highlight individual words, phrases, or substrings in the session window to identify errors in log files or streaming output and to highlight prompts. Regular expressions are also supported, making it easier to highlight strings like IP addresses. Keyword display attributes (bold, reverse video, and color) can be combined.

• Command Manager

  Streamline repetitive tasks with the dockable Command Manager, which makes it easy to organize commands into named folders, filter commands by name, and launch them with a double click or by pressing Enter. Commands and command folders can also be shared with the button bar and vice versa.

• Session Configuration and Management

  SecureCRT gives you extensive session management options. Name your sessions, save and recall session settings, and configure custom keyboard, display, connection and other settings for each session. You can also organize your sessions in folders and access your sessions quickly by typing part of the session name in the Connect bar or the Session Manager's filter bar.

• Tab Groups

  Tab groups allow you to compare the output of two sessions and group related sessions in the same SecureCRT window so that you can get more done in less time. You can organize sessions in tabs and switch easily between them. Or you can work in one tab while monitoring the session output in another tab. Tabs can be grouped vertically or horizontally.

• Status Bar

  Customize the status bar by displaying only the items you want in the order you want. When a session is being logged, the log file name is shown in the status bar, and while a selection is being made, the line count is shown (as seen above).
