2. Select a server to connect to.

   Tap the name of the server in the side bar.

   If you want to specify a new server, tap the Plus (`+`) button to add the server to the side bar. See Section 3.1, “Configuring the List of Servers”.

   When you tap the server name, Oracle Virtual Desktop Client connects automatically to the server and displays the login screen.

   The side bar disappears when you connect to a server. To redisplay the side bar, see Section 4.7, “How Do I Display the Side Bar?”.

3. Log in to the session.

   Enter the user name and password for your Sun Ray Software or Oracle Virtual Desktop Infrastructure session.
