Hi,
No its not the case,
Its timeout to receive response back from the server.
So for example download file or upload file might take 10000 messages to send to complete operation so timeout between sending 1 message and getting response that this message was received by the server should be no longer then 30 seconds for example.
Same principle goes to SFTP but in SFTP case there are SFTP sepcific messages so smae idea, how many times should pass between sending SFTP request and getting response back that request was received and processed by the server.
Hope it makes more sense, its may be a little bit more technical but this is what I meant by timeouts.
Thanks,
Oleg
