Connecting to a host system by routing, or tunneling, through a series of intermediate host connections, is a fairly common scenario in the Unix world.  In the NonStop arena, multi-hop tunneling has not been as commonly available, even though it is just as desirable.   

OutsideView 8.1 now offers multiple hop connections, via SSH tunneling.  These indirect connections are easily configured.  OutsideView 8.1 has the ability to route through up to 5 intermediate servers, to reach the preferred final host.
