Only one user can access an H3C S5100-SI/EI series Ethernet switch at a given time when the
latter operates as an FTP server.
Operating as an FTP server, an H3C S5100-SI/EI series Ethernet switch cannot receive a file
whose size exceeds its storage space. The clients that attempt to upload such a file will be
disconnected with the FTP server due to lack of storage space on the FTP server.
To protect unused sockets against attacks, the S5100-SI/EI Ethernet switch provides the following
functions:
TCP 21 is enabled only when you start the FTP server.
TCP 21 is disabled when you shut down the FTP server.
Configuring connection idle time
After the idle time is configured, if the server does not receive service requests from a client within a
specified time period, it terminates the connection with the client, thus preventing a user from occupying
the connection for a long time without performing any operation.
