Parameter
minutes: Idle-timeout timer in minutes, in the range 1 to 35791. It defaults to 30
minutes.
Description
Use the ftp timeout command to set the idle-timeout timer.
Use the undo ftp timeout command to restore the default.
Once you log onto the FTP server, you set up an FTP connection. When the connection
is disrupted or aborted, the FTP server, however, cannot realize that if not notified and
maintains the connection all the same. To address this issue, you can set an
idle-timeout timer to have the FTP server disconnect if no command is received or/and
transmitted before the timer expires.
Example
# Set the idle-timeout timer to 36 minutes.
[3com] ftp timeout 36
