The say the connect statement has to have the following form:

CONNECT TO <SQL-server> [AS <connection name>] [USER <user name>]

It is implementation dependant how to get database name, server name resp.
number and port number from SQL-server. How will we do this?

How about this?

<dbname>@<server>:<port>

Each missing entry will be set to the default value:
template1@localhost:5432.
