Usage Guidelines
The SFTP client, in the interactive mode, creates a secure SSH channel where the user can enter any supported
command. When a user starts the SFTP client in an interactive mode, the SFTP client process creates a secure
SSH channel and opens an editor where user can enter any supported command.
More than one request can be sent to the SFTP server to execute the commands. While there is no limit on
the number of 'non-acknowledged' or outstanding requests to the server, the server might buffer or queue
these requests for convenience. Therefore, there might be a logical sequence to the order of requests.
The following unix based commands are supported in the interactive mode:
