connect

connect [server-url {admin|user_name} password]

Connects the administration tool to the server. Any administrator can connect. An administrator is either the admin user, any user in the $admin group, or any user that has administrator permissions enabled. See Administrator Permissions for more information about administrator permissions.

server-url is usually in the form:

protocol://host-name:port-number

for example:

tcp://myhost:7222

The protocol can be tcp or ssl.

If a user name or password are not provided, the user is prompted to enter a user name and password, or only the password, if the user name was already specified in the command.

You can enter connect with no other options and the administrative tool tries to connect to the local server on the default port, which is 7222.
