Sometimes you have to hop through multiple devices to get on the end device you want to use. It would be nice to be able to make secure gateways dependent on each other just like you can do with SSH.
So to get on device C I first need to log in to device A, then device B and finally I get to C. If I could just say: Device C depends on secure gateway B and secure gateway B depends on secure gateway A then I could click on device C and RoyalTSX will tunnel through both A and B to C.

Good Morning Klein, I solved this task using Royal TSX version2
Create new Terminal
Connection Type: Custom Terminal
under Advanced column on the left
Custome Commands
ssh -A -t SERVER_1 ssh -t -A SERVER_2 ssh -A -t SERVER_3 ssh -t -A FINAL_SERVER
This can be easily completed if you exchange the ssh key between hops.
This works only on TSX version for Mac
Unfortunatly there’s no this option on windows version
Cheers!
Hi Davide, If you are using putty you can do this is windows add tunnels inside putty configuration, works like a charm.
But nested secure gateways would be perfect and make the software more amazing 
I’d really like to see this feature!
Is it a lot of effort to implement the nested secure gateway dependency?
This would also be great for the file transfer feature.
Edit: Shall I open another idea for Windows? I’m just using Windows, but found the thread here via the search. Getting this implemented into the Windows client would be great.
I really want to see this feature in next version of Royal TSX, hope it will be implemented ASAP, because I’m migrating from MobaXTerm where it’s nicely implemented already.
I’d really like to see this feature - some of my colleagues asked for it 
Hello
any news for the feature? or maybe a workaround?
i have many cascaded devices/jumphosts in the network.
Hi,
we just released a Royal TS V6 for Windows beta release where you can test this feature (Royal TSX will soon follow):

Hello,
that’s great news Stefan! I’m on ARM MacOS, so i must wait for Royal TSX Have a nice day.
Hi Tomas,
a new Royal TSX V5 beta which has this feature on board has just been released.
You can get the beta here: https://www.royalapps.com/ts/mac/features-beta
Please let us know if it works as expected for you.
thx,
felix
Hi Felix,
thank you for information. I tryed this version, but it’s maybe in early beta stage because I’m still ending with errors when I try change some properties on SSH servers.
Hi Tomas,
that looks like some of your plugins are not up to date.
Please ensure that all available plugin updates are installed.
thx,
felix
OK, but will after updating this plugins my older 4.3.6 version working without issues? I want to stay with stable release until v5 will be in final stage.
Tomas,
no, plugins are always bound to a specific Royal TSX version. So if you downgrade, you will simply have to re-install all your plugins.
Cheers,
Felix
Thank you, so I have new beta V5 installed, but can’t found this new feature. Can you help me where to find it?
Hi Tomas,
if you open the properties of a Secure Gateway object, you will find a new section called “Dependent Gateway”.
Here’s a blog post that describes the feature in more detail: https://www.royalapps.com/blog/dependent-gateways
While it was written with the Windows version in mind, the same concepts apply for Royal TSX.
Hope that helps!
cheers,
Felix
That’s amazing! I’ve just tried the new feature in TSX and works perfectly. You really made my life easier folks (no more complicated nested ProxyJump directives in SSH config files)
Thanks!
Víctor
Awesome! Thx for the kind feedback, Victor!
cheers,
Felix
