OT/ICS Session Manager Connection
ot/ics session manager sessions are typically established using an ssh tunnel this creates a secure "pipe" from the operator's local machine to the kron pam server, which then forwards the traffic to the target device example command ssh n l \[local port] \[target ip] \[target port] \[pam user]@\[pam ip] p \[pam ssh port] · local port the port on the user's machine used to access the application · target ip/port the destination address in the ot/it environment · pam gateway the kron pam server acting as the proxy once the tunnel is authenticated, the user connects their application to localhost \[local port]
