Changing the FTP Timeout
Note You can use the FTP client for downloading updates and configuration files from your FTP server.
Use the ftp-timeout command in the service host submode to change the number of seconds that the FTP
client waits before timing out when the sensor is communicating with an FTP server. The default is 300
seconds. To change the FTP timeout, follow these steps:
Step 1 Log in to the sensor using an account with administrator privileges.
Step 2 Enter network settings mode.
sensor# configure terminal
sensor(config)# service host
sensor(config-hos)# network-settings
Step 3 Change the number of seconds of the FTP timeout.
sensor(config-hos-net)# ftp-timeout 500
Step 4 Verify the FTP timeout change.
