Description
Use the ftp timeout command to set the connection idle time.
Use the undo ftp timeout command to restore the default connection idle time.
The default connection idle time is 30 minutes.
If a FTP connection between an FTP server and an FTP client breaks down abnormally
and the FTP server is not acknowledged with this, the FTP server keeps the connection
as usual.
You can set a connection idle time, so that the FTP server considers a FTP connection
to be invalid and terminate it if no data exchange occurs on it in a specific period known
as connection idle time.
Example
# Set the connection idle time to 36 minutes.
<3Com> system-view
System View: return to User View with Ctrl+Z.
