Narrow the connection. Keep the secrets out.

Describe the expected result, what happened, the app version, device type, authentication method without its secret, and the last connection stage that succeeded.

• Confirm the host and port are reachable from the current network.
• Verify the username and authentication method.
• Review the host-key prompt carefully rather than accepting an unexpected identity.
• Never send passwords, private keys, or complete private host information to support.

Confirm the configured knock sequence, transport, timing, and final SSH port match the server. Verify the knock independently at the server before changing authentication settings.

Include the remote terminal type, shell, multiplexer, and a sanitized example. Nerd Font or special glyph output also depends on the characters emitted by the remote program.

Confirm the expected host and session. Avoid sharing captured output that contains credentials, tokens, customer data, internal addresses, or private command arguments.
