For reasons unknown, ITERM2 is unable to establish a connection with certain units on my local host. I get:
Connection failed: ssh: connect to host 192.168.252.248 port 22: Connection refused?
Initially, I assumed that this was related to Secure Shell (SSH); however, neither SSH nor the `ping` command functioned properly.
No connection to the host at IP address 192.168.252.248 could be established. The ping command timed out after sending a request to determine if the host is reachable.
On the built-in terminal, this functionality operates as expected; similarly, the browser is able to establish a connection with the machine’s .248 network interface.
Although my initial hunch pointed to Little Snitch as a prime suspect, I recognized that there were no clear guidelines prohibiting site visitors from using iTerm2. I’ve additionally turned off the community filter solely for the purpose of isolating this issue from any potential community-related factors; however, I still encountered the same outcome with no resolution. While there may be some ambiguity, it’s unlikely that Little Snitch is the primary culprit in this situation.
The scope for this subnet is already defined at https://192.168.252.0/24.

While this assumption may seem far-fetched,
As a professional editor and technical writer, I would suggest the following rewritten text:
“I’m unable to associate any known points in iTerm2 related to connectivity; however, I can establish connections with other hosts without any points, including my router’s network interface.”
To optimise iTerm2 for enhanced performance and user experience, consider modifying the following concepts: terminal font size, line height, and text rendering.
Utilizing macOS High Sierra 15.0.1 and iTerm2 3.5.5, I(SKIP)
I’ve further uninstalled Little Snitch entirely to eliminate the possibility of interference, yet it didn’t make a difference whatsoever.
