Start SSH Session

Sorry, new to PyCharm... need basics... including SSH... I have Putty installed and have been able to access server via Putty... I also did Puttygen to create private key - stored on Win environment.

My ultimate goal is to connect to GIT on the server... but doing setup.   Documentation is not very clear... where one does things... (I realize I am asking some very basic stuff)...

My Environment:
    PyCharm is installed on Win7
    remove server is Linux (type?)

I did Start SSH Session and it started a Terminal session on Windows... not the server???
(It took a long time to start... )
