Thanks Bob, I have been attempting to use the port triggering for sftp i.e ssh connections on port 22 but they dont seem to be getting triggered. Is it likely that the ssh port would be ignored from port triggering on this router?? The router logs do not show anything to indicate that it even attempted port triggering.

I think there is a timer setting there where you can specify when to close the tcp port Bob Reiber BK Sales and Service 3211 Longfellow Dr Belmont, CA 94002 Tel: 650 376 1122 Fax: 650 240 4556 -----Original Message----- From: netfilter-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:netfilter-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Timothy Arceri Sent: Monday, May 6, 2013 3:59 AM To: netfilter@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Simulating router breaking idle TCP connections with IPTABLES >Um, what kind of router do you have? Even some of the very basic home routers have tcp timers on them. I have a Netgear WNR1000v3. Cant find any settings for tcp timers. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
