The OpenSSH Multiplexer is a feature of the OpenSSH client that allows multiple SSH connections to be multiplexed over a single network connection. This can reduce the overhead of creating and maintaining multiple connections, leading to faster and more efficient connections.<\/p>\n

To enable the OpenSSH Multiplexer, you need to edit the OpenSSH client configuration file, typically located at ~\/.ssh\/config<\/code>. Add the following lines to the file:<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n
ControlMaster<\/span> auto
\nControlPath<\/span> ~\/.ssh\/m<\/span>aster-%r@%h<\/span>:%p
\n<\/code><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The ControlMaster<\/code> line enables the OpenSSH Multiplexer and ControlPath<\/code> sets the path to the socket file used to communicate between the client and the server.<\/p>\n

Once the configuration file has been updated, any new connections established using the ssh<\/code> command will use the OpenSSH Multiplexer. To disable the multiplexer for a specific connection, use the -o ControlMaster=no<\/code> option with the ssh<\/code> command.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
