# connect
[[Source]](https://github.com/ripple/rippled/blob/a61ffab3f9010d8accfaa98aa3cacc7d38e74121/src/ripple/rpc/handlers/Connect.cpp "Source")
The `connect` command forces the `rippled` server to connect to a specific peer `rippled` server.
*The `connect` method is an [admin method](admin-api-methods.html) that cannot be run by unprivileged users!*
### Request Format
An example of the request format:
<!-- MULTICODE_BLOCK_START -->
*WebSocket*
```json
{
"command": "connect",
"ip": "192.170.145.88",
"port": 51235
}
```
*JSON-RPC*
```json
{
"method": "connect",
"params": [
{
"ip": "192.170.145.88",
"port": 51235
}
]
}
```
*Commandline*
```sh
#Syntax: connect ip [port]
rippled connect 192.170.145.88 51235
```
<!-- MULTICODE_BLOCK_END -->
The request includes the following parameters:
| `Field` | Type | Description |
|:--------|:-------|:----------------------------------------------------------|
| `ip` | String | IP address of the server to connect to |
| `port` | Number | _(Optional)_ Port number to use when connecting. The default is **2459**. [Updated in: rippled 1.6.0][] |
### Response Format
An example of a successful response:
<!-- MULTICODE_BLOCK_START -->
*JSON-RPC*
```json
{
"result" : {
"message" : "connecting",
"status" : "success"
}
}
```
*Commandline*
```json
Loading: "/etc/rippled.cfg"
Connecting to 127.0.0.1:5005
{
"result" : {
"message" : "connecting",
"status" : "success"
}
}
```
<!-- MULTICODE_BLOCK_END -->
The response follows the [standard format][], with a successful result containing the following fields:
| `Field` | Type | Description |
|:----------|:-------|:-------------------------------------------------------|
| `message` | String | The value `connecting`, if the command was successful. |
