Intuitive easy to understand
PuTTY modes for any age. Most of the third-party programs currently offered are somewhat slow and tedious, which is not the case with
PuTTY.
PuTTY is the program that we must use to connect to a remote server using SSH and Telnet technology . It is very practical to enter commands in a VPS server (essential when installing certain programs, or to configure some functions of the servers).
We can use Telnet for many functionalities, such as connecting to the home router. Using the SSH protocol we will be able to open ports to avoid some restrictions, among many other functions.
Although it is a program with a simple interface, it requires some knowledge of servers to use it effectively and safely. We will have to know the IP or Hostname of the server, the port, the type of connection (which is normally marked SSH) and we will be able to start operating.
Open Source
The program is open source and
completely free . There is a complete Community that is in charge of implementing different functionalities, in addition to applying security revisions to avoid any attack from the outside.
It is in continuous development.
Although it is true that its design is not very elegant, it is fully functional.
flexible and portable
You will not have to install anything to start using PuTTY. All you have to do is have the .exe file and run it. It can be carried on a flash drive to any computer and used there.
In addition, it offers us a long series of options, to customize it at our whim.
PuTTY is available for the
Windows operating system , as well as for Linux (you just have to make sure you download the right version).
