N o t e s
The terminal server assigns a number to each session you establish. The server records
these session numbers in a rotating list for use by the FORWARDS and
BACKWARDS commands. Therefore, when the highest-numbered session is current,
using the FORWARDS command reopens the lowest-numbered session. When only
one session is active at a port, the FORWARDS command reopens that session.
