SSH configuration settings
Visible only for this project | Restrict this SSH configuration to the current project. The configuration will not be available in other projects. PhpStorm stores such configurations in the project's .idea directory, which you can share between team members in a VCS. By default, this option is disabled and PhpStorm stores the SHH configuration in the IDE configuration directory. In this case, you can use this configuration in any project when working from the current instance of PhpStorm. |
Host | Specify the hostname of the server to connect to. The default value is |
Username | Specify the username for authentication to the server. |
Port | Specify the remote port number to connect to. The default value is |
Local port | Specify the local port number from which you want to forward the connection. There is no default value, which means PhpStorm dynamically selects the port number. |
Authentication type | Select the client authentication method:
|
Parse config file ~/.ssh/config | Read the OpenSSH client-side configuration file for any options not specified in the SSH configuration for the corresponding host. This option is available only for Password and Key pair authentication types. With OpenSSH config and authentication agent, PhpStorm reads the OpenSSH config file in any case. |
Test Connection | Try to connect with the current SSH configuration settings. |
Connection Parameters

Strict host key checking | Specify how to handle new and changed host keys.
|
Hash hosts in knownhosts file | Store new host records in hash format. |
