Raw Session Settings

You can use raw session settings to setup advanced session settings,

in scripting, using -rawsettings switch of scripting command open (when the settings that cannot be configured using session URL nor using any dedicated switch of the command);
in .NET assembly, using SessionOptions.AddRawSettings method (when the settings cannot be configured using any dedicated property of SessionOptions class).

Common advanced settings settings:

Name	Description	Values
`PingType`	Keepalives 1	`0` = Off, `1` = Sending of null SSH packets, `2` = Executing dummy protocol commands
`PingIntervalSecs`	Seconds between keepalives
`ProxyMethod`	Proxy type	`0` = None, `1` = SOCKS4, `2` = SOCKS5, `3` = HTTP, `4` = Telnet, `5` = Local
`ProxyHost`	Proxy host name
`ProxyHost`	Proxy port number
`ProxyHost`	Proxy port number
`Compression`	SSH session compression	`0` = Disabled, `1` = Enabled
`SshProt`	Preferred SSH protocol version	`0` = SSH-1 only, `1` = SSH-1 preferred, `2` = SSH-2 preferred, `3` = SSH-2 only
`Cipher`	SSH encryption cipher selection policy	Comma-separated list of cipher preference order, where names of ciphers are `aes`, `blowfish`, `3des`, `arcfour` and `des`. Token `WARN` is used to delimit substandard ciphers. Example: `blowfish,aes,3des,WARN,arcfour,des`
`FtpAccount`	FTP account
`Tunnel`	Connection tunneling	`0` = Disabled, `1` = Enabled
`TunnelHostName`	Tunnel host name
`TunnelPortNumber`	Tunnel port number
`TunnelUserName`	Tunnel user name
`TunnelHostKey`	Fingerprint of expected SSH tunnel host key
`TunnelPublicKeyFile`	Path to tunnel private key file
`Utf`	UTF-8 Encoding for Filenames	`0` = Off, `1` = On, `3` = Auto
`Shell`	Shell (SCP protocol)

To find correct syntax for settings not listed above, configure the setting in the GUI, store it into a stored session, save configuration to an INI file and use the same syntax as in an INI file.

Enabling keepalives has very limited effect in scripting (except for keepuptodate command) and almost no effect in .NET assembly.Back
