1.3.5  ftp timeout 
Syntax 
ftp timeout minute 
undo ftp timeout  
View 
System view 
Parameter 
minute: Connection timeouts (measured in minutes), ranging from 1 to 35791; By 
default, the connection timeout time is 30 minutes. 
Description 
Use the ftp timeout command to configure connection timeout interval. 
Use the undo ftp timeout command to restore the default connection timeout interval. 
After a user logs on to an FTP Server and has established connection, if the connection 
is interrupted or cut abnormally by the user, FTP Server will still hold the connection. 
The connection timeout can avoid this problem. If the FTP server has no command 
interaction with a client for a specific period of time, it considers the connection to be 
failed and disconnect to the client.  
Example 
# Set the connection timeout to 36 minutes. 
<Quidway> system-view 
System View: return to User View with Ctrl+Z.
