Sessions

A session is grouping one or more connections of a user together. This enables the user:

  1. ... to connect with several connections to the same environment,
  2. ... to use the same environment, although all other prior connections are already disconnected, but the timeout of idle sessions is not already reached,
  3. ... and the authorization more lean by remembering the user by its SSH Public Key instead of (for example of the OpenID Connect Authorization) repeatedly asking the user to go through the authorization flow.

For OIDC, a remembered key can skip the browser step, but does not disable configured refresh-token checks or permit reuse of a disposed session.
