.connect (connect to a session)

Description of the '.connect' command in HyperDbg.

Command

.connect

Syntax

.connect [local]

.connect [Ip (string)] [Port (decimal)]

Description

Connects to a remote computer session or connects to a local debugger.

If you don't specify the port, then HyperDbg uses the default port, which is 50000; however, you can change the default port if you compile the HyperDbg.

Parameters

[local]

The local debugging system.

[Ip (string)]

The IP Address of the remote system.

[Port (decimal)] (optional)

The port address that the remote debugger listens on it.

Examples

The following example connects to the current system for local debugging.

HyperDbg> .connect local

The following command connects to a remote system (192.168.1.5) which the HyperDbg debugger listens on its 50000 (by default) port.

HyperDbg> .connect 192.168.1.5

The following command connects to a remote system (192.168.1.5) which the HyperDbg debugger listens on its 50001 port.

HyperDbg> .connect 192.168.1.5 50001

SDK

To connect to the local debugger in the VMI Mode, you need to use the following function in libhyperdbg:

VOID
hyperdbg_u_connect_local_debugger();

To connect to the remote debugger in the VMI Mode, you need to use the following function in libhyperdbg:

BOOLEAN
hyperdbg_u_connect_remote_debugger(const CHAR * ip, const CHAR * port);

Remarks

1. In order to be able to load modules and run commands, you have to connect to a remote system or debug your current system.
