Title:	Linux: SSH ClientAliveInterval
Summary:	The two options ClientAliveInterval and ClientAliveCountMax control the; timeout of ssh sessions. When the ClientAliveIntervalvariable is set, ssh sessions that have no; activity for the specified length of time are terminated. When the ClientAliveCountMax variable is; set, sshdwill send client alive messages at every ClientAliveIntervalinterval. When the number of; consecutive client alive messages are sent with no response from the client, the sshsession is; terminated. For example, if the ClientAliveInterval is set to 15 seconds and the; ClientAliveCountMax is set to 3, the client ssh session will be terminated after 45 seconds of idle time.
