            Bug ID: 3921
           Summary: Use SO_KEEPALIVE on forwarded connections
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 10.2p1
          Hardware: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P5
         Component: sshd
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

The option TCPKeepAlive can be used to set SO_KEEPALIVE on the
encrypted
channel, but there is no way to set SO_KEEPALIVE on forwarded
connections.

Whether with TCPKeepAlive or some other option say ChannelKeepAlive,
SO_KEEPALIVE should be set on forwarded connections, -L and -D
connections created by sshd, and -R connections created by ssh.

Unclear to me whether it would be useful for ssh to be able to request
keepalive to be set by sshd on the -L and -D connections.

Thanks, Paul
