Hello, Did anyone notice that SSH (TCP port 22) times out rather quicky, We have a number of remote techs that require pro-longed access to SSH Sessions and it timesout very quicky, Is there any way to correct this (Not work around) but correct? It is very annoying

    You can connect to the unit through the CLI and use the following to increace the timeout period. set system session_ttl default 3600 To set the timeout of a specific port number (in this example ssh) type the following command in the CLI set system session_ttl port 22 timeout 3600 I would be a bit reluctant to increase the timeout on all ports as this would more than likely have an effect on performance.
