By default, an SFTP client uses the IP address of the outbound interface specified by the route to the SFTP
server as the source IP address to communicate with the SFTP server. You can change the source IP
address or specify a source interface for the client.
To make sure the SFTP client and the SFTP server can communicate with each other, and to improve the
