Retain previously used logon credentials for a peer to peer session

You can configure controller properties to store a history of the target IP addresses, user IDs, and domain names that are used to start a peer to peer session.

These items are then available for selection in the open connection window when a controller user starts a peer to peer session. The history is stored in the trc_history.properties file in the home directory of the controller user. Edit the trc_controller.cfg file to configure these properties. For more information about configuring propertiess, see Configuring global controller properties.
