Great extension, Danny. Being able to open a CLI directly from the SmartConsole context menu and switch between Expert and Clish is very useful for daily operations. I also like that it supports regular gateways, clusters, VSX hosts, and Maestro/ElasticXL environments. A nice improvement for the future would be broader VS system support and SMB validation.

Hello

I'm still a great fan of the console, so I like to use an SSH client to directly connect to the gateways; but your extension is very comfortable and it's useful for quickly execute commands on the gateway ... Great job (as usual).
