Prerequisites:

  1. Use the pre-release of the Remote-SSH extension

Steps:

  1. open up your SSH config file
  2. create a new entry that uses a "Match" statement
  3. from command palette select "connect to host"
  4. Verification: make sure the host name you provided for the config entry with the "Match" statement appears as a selectable item in the dropdown.
  5. Make sure to clear any settings out of your config once you are done

@eleanorjboyd for someone that is not a ssh expert there is quite some searching involved to find out what match statements are and what they do. An example would have been helpful here.
