Session Configuration
To connect you first need to configure your session.
When configuring a session, most often you set a Host name, User name and Protocol.
Session is usually configured on a Login dialog. In scripting and on command-line session is configured using session URL and some additional switches.

Stored Sessions
Although you can configure a session manually every time you connect, more convenient is to store your frequently used session configurations into a stored session list.
To store session configuration use Save button on the Login dialog. The Save session as dialog will appear.
You will find stored sessions useful also for scripting to configure session options that cannot be configured using scripting commands directly.
Note that even when you have already logged in, you can still store the opened session.
System administrators can create stored session that cannot be modified nor deleted.
Password Storing
You can store a password as part of the stored session.
Default Session Configuration
New session configurations (both in GUI and scripting) start with default configuration. Particularly with default SFTP protocol. The built-in defaults can be changed using Set defaults command in drop menu of Save button on Login dialog.
