After the tenant selection, devices to which the user has rights to log in to will be listed. In this case, there is only one device to connect to at tenant accompany (number 2), so it directly connected to that device.

After connecting to a device, type exit to go back and select a different device under the same tenant. By typing exit again, a different tenant can be selected.
