SSHChannelOpenRequest Event

Fired when a host attempts to open a new channel.

Syntax

[VB.NET]
Public Event OnSSHChannelOpenRequest As OnSSHChannelOpenRequestHandler

[C#]
public event OnSSHChannelOpenRequestHandler OnSSHChannelOpenRequest;

public delegate void OnSSHChannelOpenRequestHandler(object sender, SshclientSSHChannelOpenRequestEventArgs e);

class SshclientSSHChannelOpenRequestEventArgs : EventArgs {
  string ChannelId {get;}
  string Service {get;}
  string Parameters {get;}  byte[] ParametersB {get;}
  bool Accept {get; set;}
}

Remarks

This event is fired whenever a host attempts to open a new channel. ChannelId will contain the id of the channel to be created. Service will identify the type of channel that is being requested (e.g.: "session"). Set Accept to true to accept the channel open request.

If the channel open request contains extra information, it will be contained in Parameters; you can extract data from it using GetSSHParam and GetSSHParamBytes. The most common example of a request with parameters would be a request with Service set to "direct-tcpip" (for SSH tunneling); in that case Parameters will contain the host to connect (string), the port to connect (int), the originator IP address (string) and the originator TCP port (int).
