Idle Session Timeout
|
Idle timeout in seconds for client session. After the timeout
value has been reached and if there is no activity, the user session
is closed. By default, the value is set to
Infinite.
|
Keys
|
RSA/DSA public keys for SFTP authentication. Text comments can be
associated with the keys to help administrators track why they were
added. As of the 2011.1 software release, key management for SFTP
has changed to increase security. When creating an SFTP key, it is
required to include the user property with a
valid user assignment. SFTP keys are grouped by user and are
authenticated via SFTP with the user's name. It is recommended to
recreate any existing SFTP keys that do not include the user
property, even though they will still authenticate.

SFTP Ports
The SFTP service uses a non-standard port number for connections to the appliance.
This is to avoid conflicts with administrative SSH connections to port 22. By default,
the SFTP port is 218 and must be specified on the SFTP client prior to connecting. For
example, an Oracle Solaris client using SFTP, would connect with the following
command:
manta# sftp -o "Port 218" root@guppy
