How does ssh keep alive?

[isPoto]

ssh will automatically disconnect if it is idle for a while. This is very disturbing

Many ssh clients have a keep alives feature that keeps ssh connections alive.

But I don't find that feature in WindTerm, how do I keep ssh connected?

Please do the following two operations to set keepalive to see if this problem can be solved.

• Check the Session Setting Dialog - SSH - Connection - Enable TCP keepalives (SO_KEEPALIVE option).
• Set Session Setting Dialog - SSH - Connection - Sends null packet to keep session alive to nonzero value, like 5 seconds.

If you still have problems, please let me know, thank you!

Thank you for developing such a great SSH client!

Seems that each session has to be set individually. Is there a way to set this globally ?
