# Local Transport (/transport/local)



Local transport is the default. The current `mlab` handles the command and connects to the Native or Docker daemon selected on this machine.

```text
current mlab -> current mlabd
```

Return to Local after selecting an SSH target:

```bash
mlab remote use local
```

Override an SSH default for one command:

```bash
mlab --remote local daemon status
```

Choose how the local daemon runs in [Daemon](/daemon).
