Access to devices using Telnet - ssh protocols, can run making the integration of PRTG network monitor with KITTY application.
The function (Telnet, SSH) in PRTG can facilitate the work of network administrators, allowing direct access to Linux servers, Cisco switches and routers, through CLI command line interface using the Kitty application.
Device Context Menu - Device Tools with action (TELNET - SSH).
https://www.paessler.com/manuals/prtg/context_menus
To activate the function (TELNET, SSH) in the application of PRTG you must edit the file (_Prtg.ContextMenus.js) in the folder C: \ Program Files (x86) \ PRTG Network Monitor \ webroot \ javascript
Contextmenu for devices
Original Code
"openssh": function (t) { _Prtg.objectTools.windows.openSSHWindow((t.attr('data-id')||t.attr('id')), "http"); },
"opentelnet": function (t) { _Prtg.objectTools.windows.openTelnetWindow((t.attr('data-id')||t.attr('id')), "http");},

"openssh": function (t) { _Prtg.objectTools.windows.openWindow((t.attr('data-id')||t.attr('id')), "ssh"); },

Thanks for this How To! Unfortunately after an PRTG-Update the setting will be overwrite...
It would be desirable if SSH / Telnet access is permanently available via a PRTG update

Thanks for this tutorial. I've followed it and the Telnet is working perfect. But for the SSH, i'm still having an error: "Unable to establish connection to SSH, Host does not exist". When I open ssh directly with Putty without passing by PRTG even with the FQDN for all devices, ssh work perfectly. I've checked all the credentials, everything is Ok but it still not working with Prtg. I'm using PRTG verison 16.3.26.6384+
Can you help me on this item ?
Thanks

hi there, this does no longer appear to work as the line "{ cls:'device hideforreadonlyuser...." does not appear to be in the context menu.js anymore. Please advise as i would love to bring SSH to PRTG

Hi Sam,
Sorry, but this is not officially supported by Paessler. You could simply put ssh:<device-url> in the management URL of the device. Then proceed with the putty section and you're set :)
Kind regards,

Hello, I'm trying to do the same with ultraVNC, i've seen that there is a preconfigured option like the one explained above for TELNET and SSH. I'm able to see the "new windows with VNC" in the device tools list, but once a click on it no window appear and no program start. can someone help me? i have PRTG version 18.2.40.1683+

Hi am using PRTG v18.2.41 and followed the instructions but after changing the java file am not seeing the context menu changed.
I tried changing the existing names also like i change the "New Window with HTTP" to just "New" but there is no change reflection in the software console.
Is there any other place do i need to modify,
Thanks for any help,
Regards, Ansab

Did you try to force refresh the page? As the entry already seems to be there, it might be just a caching issue.

Hi,
we use the ssh access for our Routers and Switches. When I update PRTG everytime, I must edit the javascript-files. Please, can you add a SSH-Access in a comming PRTG-Update?
Thx!
Marco

This won't make it's way into PRTG I'm afraid. You can configure Device Tools in PRTG Desktop, though :)

Hi,
since the last Update from version 8.4.45 to 8.4.47 the access via SSH doesn't work. If I try to access a device via SSH nothing happens (no popup-window, popups allowed). I think, the problem is the option "ui;'extlink':
{ cls:'device hideforreadonlyuser', id:'openssh', ui:'extlink', caption:'<#langjs key="js.contextmenus.Tools.openssh" default="Neues Fenster mit SSH">…'},
For the pre-defined device-tools the following ui-option is use: ui:'glyph-link-ext'
{ cls:'device hideforreadonlyuser', id:'openftp', ui:'glyph-link-ext', caption:'<#langjs key="js.contextmenus.Tools.OpenFTP" default="New Window with FTP">…'},
When I try to Access the device via FTP for example, a new Windows pop up.
My Configuration:
... "openssh": function (t) { _Prtg.objectTools.windows.openWindow((t.attr('data-id')||t.attr('id')), "ssh"); }, "opentelnet": function (t) { _Prtg.objectTools.windows.openWindow((t.attr('data-id')||t.attr('id')), "telnet"); }, ... { cls:'device hideforreadonlyuser separator', id:'opentelnet', ui:'extlink', caption:'<#langjs key="js.contextmenus.Tools.opentelnet" default="Neues Fenster mit TELNET">…'}, { cls:'device hideforreadonlyuser', id:'openssh', ui:'extlink', caption:'<#langjs key="js.contextmenus.Tools.openssh" default="Neues Fenster mit SSH">…'}, ...
Thx for help,
Marco

Kindly note that we can't provide support for these customizations, you solely depend on the community expertise in this area :/
