# SCP Component

The SCP component can be used to transfer files to and from Secure Shell (SSH) servers using the Secure Copy Protocol (SCP).

## Syntax

```text
TiphSCP
```

## Remarks

The SCP component is the Secure Shell (SSH)-enabled equivalent of the IPWorks RCP component. The [SSHHost](#sshhost-property-scp-component) and [SSHPort](#sshport-property-scp-component) properties specify which Secure Shell (SSH) server to use. The [SSHUser](#sshuser-property-scp-component) and [SSHPassword](#sshpassword-property-scp-component) properties allow the client to authenticate itself with the server. The [SSHServerAuthentication](#sshserverauthentication-event-scp-component) event or [SSHAcceptServerHostKey](#sshacceptserverhostkey-property-scp-component) property allow you to check the server identity. Finally, the [SSHStatus](#sshstatus-event-scp-component) event provides information about the SSH handshake.

The SCP component implements a standard SCP file transfer client.

The first step in using the component is specifying the [SSHHost](#sshhost-property-scp-component), [SSHUser](#sshuser-property-scp-component), and [SSHPassword](#sshpassword-property-scp-component). The file to upload to or download from is given by the [RemoteFile](#remotefile-property-scp-component) property. The file to download to or upload from is specified by [LocalFile](#localfile-property-scp-component).

If [LocalFile](#localfile-property-scp-component) is set to something other than an empty string, then files are received in [LocalFile](#localfile-property-scp-component); otherwise, the data are received through the [Transfer](#transfer-event-scp-component) event. [StartTransfer](#starttransfer-event-scp-component) and [EndTransfer](#endtransfer-event-scp-component) are fired at the beginning and end of transmission.

# Connected Property ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

This property shows whether the component is connected.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
property Connected: Boolean read get_Connected;
```

## Default Value

false

## Remarks

This property is used to determine whether or not the component is connected to the remote host. Use the [SSHLogon](#sshlogon-method-scp-component) and [SSHLogoff](#sshlogoff-method-scp-component) methods to manage the connection.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

# FilePermissions Property ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

The file permissions for the RemoteFile .

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
property FilePermissions: String read get_FilePermissions write set_FilePermissions;
```

## Default Value

'0600'

## Remarks

This property defines the permissions that will be assigned to the [RemoteFile](#remotefile-property-scp-component) after an upload. The value is a four-digit octal value. This is the same format that is used with the Unix chmod command. The default value of "0600" gives read/write permissions to the file's owner.

The last three octal digits are the most significant and represent, in order, the file access capabilities of the file's owner, the owner's group, and other users. Each of these octal digits is, on its own, a 3-bit bitmask with the following possible values:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 1 (001) | Execute |
| 2 (010) | Write |
| 4 (100) | Read |

An octal permission digit of 7 would have all three values set and would mean that the file can be read, written, and executed by that user class. For example, the octal permissions "100644" would have a value "6" for the owner, "4" for the group, and "4" for other users. This would be interpreted to mean that all users can read the file, no users can execute it, and only the owner can write it. The permissions "40755" would mean that all users can read and execute the file, but only the owner can write it.

The previous octal digit is another bitmask with the following values:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 1 (001) | Sticky Bit - retain the file in memory for performance |
| 2 (010) | Set GID - sets the group Id of the process to the file's group Id upon execution (only for executable files) |
| 4 (100) | Set UID - sets the user Id of the process to the file's user Id upon execution (only for executable files) |

NOTE: Not all servers support setting permissions after an upload.

# Firewall Property ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

A set of properties related to firewall access.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
property Firewall: TiphFirewall read get_Firewall write set_Firewall;
```

## Remarks

This is a [Firewall](#firewall-type)-type property, which contains fields describing the firewall through which the component will attempt to connect.

 Please refer to the [Firewall](#firewall-type) type for a complete list of fields.

# LocalFile Property ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

The path to a local file for upload or download.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
property LocalFile: String read get_LocalFile write set_LocalFile;
```

## Default Value

''

## Remarks

The LocalFile property is used by the [Upload](#upload-method-scp-component) and [Download](#download-method-scp-component) methods. The file will be overwritten only if the [Overwrite](#overwrite-property-scp-component) property is set to True.

**Example. Setting LocalFile:**

```text
SCPControl.Localfile = "C:\localfile.txt"
SCPControl.RemoteFile = "remotefile.txt"
SCPControl.Download()

SCPControl.Localfile = "C:\localfile2.txt"
SCPControl.RemoteFile = "folder/remotefile2.txt"
SCPControl.Upload()
```

Multiple file uploads and downloads are supported through the use of filemasks.

To upload files matching a filemask, set LocalFile to a local path including a filemask. Set [RemotePath](#remotepath-property-scp-component) to the directory on the server where the files will be uploaded. In this case, [RemoteFile](#remotefile-property-scp-component) is ignored. All matching files will be upload when [Upload](#upload-method-scp-component) is called. The [StartTransfer](#starttransfer-event-scp-component), [Transfer](#transfer-event-scp-component), and [EndTransfer](#endtransfer-event-scp-component) events provide details about the individual file transfers.

To download files matching a filemask, set [RemoteFile](#remotefile-property-scp-component) to a filemask. The path may be specified as part of the value in [RemoteFile](#remotefile-property-scp-component) or may be set separately in [RemotePath](#remotepath-property-scp-component). LocalFile should be set to a local directory where files will be downloaded. When [Download](#download-method-scp-component) is called, all matching files are downloaded. The [StartTransfer](#starttransfer-event-scp-component), [Transfer](#transfer-event-scp-component), and [EndTransfer](#endtransfer-event-scp-component) events provide details about the individual file transfers. In the event an individual file fails to transfer, the [Error](#error-event-scp-component) event will fire.

# LocalHost Property ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

The name of the local host or user-assigned IP interface through which connections are initiated or accepted.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
property LocalHost: String read get_LocalHost write set_LocalHost;
```

## Default Value

''

## Remarks

This property contains the name of the local host as obtained by the *gethostname()* system call, or if the user has assigned an IP address, the value of that address.

In multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface) setting LocalHost to the IP address of an interface will make the component initiate connections (or accept in the case of server components) only through that interface. It is recommended to provide an IP address rather than a hostname when setting this property to ensure the desired interface is used.

If the component is connected, the LocalHost property shows the IP address of the interface through which the connection is made in internet dotted format (aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd). In most cases, this is the address of the local host, except for multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface).

NOTE: LocalHost is not persistent. You must always set it in code, and never in the property window.

# LocalPort Property ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

The TCP port in the local host where the component binds.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
property LocalPort: Integer read get_LocalPort write set_LocalPort;
```

## Default Value

0

## Remarks

This property must be set before a connection is attempted. It instructs the component to bind to a specific port (or communication endpoint) in the local machine.

Setting this property to 0 (default) enables the system to choose an open port at random. The chosen port will be returned by the LocalPort property after the connection is established.

LocalPort cannot be changed once a connection is made. Any attempt to set this property when a connection is active will generate an error.

This property is useful when trying to connect to services that require a trusted port on the client side.

# Overwrite Property ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

The value indicating whether or not the component should overwrite files during transfer.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
property Overwrite: Boolean read get_Overwrite write set_Overwrite;
```

## Default Value

false

## Remarks

This property is a value indicating whether or not the component should overwrite [LocalFile](#localfile-property-scp-component) when downloading. If Overwrite is False, an error will be thrown whenever [LocalFile](#localfile-property-scp-component) exists before a download operation.

# RemoteFile Property ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

The name of the remote file for uploading and downloading.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
property RemoteFile: String read get_RemoteFile write set_RemoteFile;
```

## Default Value

''

## Remarks

The RemoteFile is either an absolute file path or a relative path based on the server current directory.

A number of methods use RemoteFile as an argument.

**Example. Setting RemoteFile:**

```text
SCPControl.Localfile = "C:\localfile.txt"
SCPControl.RemoteFile = "remotefile.txt"
SCPControl.Download()

SCPControl.Localfile = "C:\localfile2.txt"
SCPControl.RemoteFile = "folder/remotefile2.txt"
SCPControl.Upload()
```

The remote path may be specified as part of the value supplied here, or separately in [RemotePath](#remotepath-property-scp-component).

Multiple file uploads and downloads are supported through the use of filemasks.

To upload files matching a filemask, set [LocalFile](#localfile-property-scp-component) to a local path including a filemask. Set [RemotePath](#remotepath-property-scp-component) to the directory on the server where the files will be uploaded. In this case, RemoteFile is ignored. All matching files will be upload when [Upload](#upload-method-scp-component) is called. The [StartTransfer](#starttransfer-event-scp-component), [Transfer](#transfer-event-scp-component), and [EndTransfer](#endtransfer-event-scp-component) events provide details about the individual file transfers.

To download files matching a filemask, set RemoteFile to a filemask. The path may be specified as part of the value in RemoteFile or may be set separately in [RemotePath](#remotepath-property-scp-component). [LocalFile](#localfile-property-scp-component) should be set to a local directory where files will be downloaded. When [Download](#download-method-scp-component) is called, all matching files are downloaded. The [StartTransfer](#starttransfer-event-scp-component), [Transfer](#transfer-event-scp-component), and [EndTransfer](#endtransfer-event-scp-component) events provide details about the individual file transfers. In the event an individual file fails to transfer, the [Error](#error-event-scp-component) event will fire.

# RemotePath Property ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

The remote path on the server.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
property RemotePath: String read get_RemotePath write set_RemotePath;
```

## Default Value

''

## Remarks

The RemotePath is either an absolute file path or a relative path based on the server current directory.

This property specifies the remote path on the server when uploading or downloading.

This is required when using a filemask to upload multiple files.

In all other cases, it is optional, and path information may instead be specified in [RemoteFile](#remotefile-property-scp-component). If this is set, it is combined with [RemoteFile](#remotefile-property-scp-component) to form a complete path to the file.

Multiple file uploads and downloads are supported through the use of filemasks.

To upload files matching a filemask, set [LocalFile](#localfile-property-scp-component) to a local path including a filemask. Set RemotePath to the directory on the server where the files will be uploaded. In this case, [RemoteFile](#remotefile-property-scp-component) is ignored. All matching files will be upload when [Upload](#upload-method-scp-component) is called. The [StartTransfer](#starttransfer-event-scp-component), [Transfer](#transfer-event-scp-component), and [EndTransfer](#endtransfer-event-scp-component) events provide details about the individual file transfers.

To download files matching a filemask, set [RemoteFile](#remotefile-property-scp-component) to a filemask. The path may be specified as part of the value in [RemoteFile](#remotefile-property-scp-component) or may be set separately in RemotePath. [LocalFile](#localfile-property-scp-component) should be set to a local directory where files will be downloaded. When [Download](#download-method-scp-component) is called, all matching files are downloaded. The [StartTransfer](#starttransfer-event-scp-component), [Transfer](#transfer-event-scp-component), and [EndTransfer](#endtransfer-event-scp-component) events provide details about the individual file transfers. In the event an individual file fails to transfer, the [Error](#error-event-scp-component) event will fire.

# SSHAcceptServerHostKey Property ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

Instructs the component to accept the server host key that matches the supplied key.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
property SSHAcceptServerHostKey: TiphCertificate read get_SSHAcceptServerHostKey write set_SSHAcceptServerHostKey;
```

## Remarks

If the host key that will be used by the server is known in advance, this property may be set to accept the expected key. Otherwise, the [SSHServerAuthentication](#sshserverauthentication-event-scp-component) event should be trapped, and the key should be accepted or refused in the event.

If this property is not set and the [SSHServerAuthentication](#sshserverauthentication-event-scp-component) event is not trapped, the server will not be authenticated and the connection will be terminated by the client.

 Please refer to the [Certificate](#certificate-type) type for a complete list of fields.

# SSHAuthMode Property ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

The authentication method to be used with the component when calling SSHLogon .

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
property SSHAuthMode: TiphTSSHAuthModes read get_SSHAuthMode write set_SSHAuthMode;
TiphTSSHAuthModes = (
  amNone,
  amMultiFactor,
  amPassword,
  amPublicKey,
  amKeyboardInteractive,
  amGSSAPIWithMic,
  amGSSAPIKeyex,
  amCustom
);
```

## Default Value

amPassword

## Remarks

The Secure Shell (SSH) Authentication specification (RFC 4252) specifies multiple methods by which a user can be authenticated by an SSH server. When a call is made to [SSHLogon](#sshlogon-method-scp-component), the component will connect to the SSH server and establish the security layer. After the connection has been secured, the client will send an authentication request to the [SSHHost](#sshhost-property-scp-component) containing the [SSHUser](#sshuser-property-scp-component). The server will respond containing a list of methods by which that user may be authenticated.

The component will attempt to authenticate the user by one of those methods based on the value of SSHAuthMode and other property values supplied by the user. Currently, the component supports the following authentication methods:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| amNone (0) | No authentication will be performed. The current [SSHUser](#sshuser-property-scp-component) value is ignored, and the connection will be logged as anonymous. |
| amMultiFactor (1) | This allows the component to attempt a multistep authentication process. The component will send authentication data to the server based on the list of methods allowed for the current user and the authentication property values supplied. The component will continue to send authentication data until the server acknowledges authentication success. If the server rejects an authentication step, the component raises an exception. |
| amPassword (2) | The component will use the values of [SSHUser](#sshuser-property-scp-component) and [SSHPassword](#sshpassword-property-scp-component) to authenticate the user. |
| amPublicKey (3) | The component will use the values of [SSHUser](#sshuser-property-scp-component) and the [SSHCert](#sshcert-property-scp-component)* properties to authenticate the user. the [SSHCert](#sshcert-property-scp-component)* properties must have a private key available for this authentication method to succeed. |
| amKeyboardInteractive (4) | At the time of authentication, the component will fire the [SSHKeyboardInteractive](#sshkeyboardinteractive-event-scp-component) event containing instructions on how to complete the authentication step. NOTE: amKeyboardInteractive is not supported in SSHTunnel. |
| amGSSAPIWithMic (5) | This allows the component to attempt Kerberos authentication using the GSSAPI-WITH-MIC scheme. The client will try Kerberos authentication using the value of [SSHUser](#sshuser-property-scp-component) (single sign-on), or if [SSHPassword](#sshpassword-property-scp-component) is specified as well, it will try Kerberos authentication with alternate credentials. This is currently supported only on Windows, unless using the Java edition, which also provides support for Linux and macOS. |
| amGSSAPIKeyex (6) | This allows the component to attempt Kerberos authentication using the GSSAPIKeyex scheme. The client will try Kerberos authentication using the value of [SSHUser](#sshuser-property-scp-component) (single sign-on), or if [SSHPassword](#sshpassword-property-scp-component) is specified as well, it will try Kerberos authentication with alternate credentials. This is currently supported only on Windows, unless using the Java edition, which also provides support for Linux and macOS. |
| amCustom (99) | This allows the component caller to take over the authentication process completely. When amCustom is set, the component will fire the [SSHCustomAuth](#sshcustomauth-event-scp-component) event as necessary to complete the authentication process. |

**Example 1. User/Password Authentication:**

```text
Control.SSHAuthMode = SftpSSHAuthModes.amPassword
Control.SSHUser = "username"
Control.SSHPassword = "password"
Control.SSHLogon("server", 22)
```

 **Example 2. Public Key Authentication:**

```text
Control.SSHAuthMode = SftpSSHAuthModes.amPublicKey
Control.SSHUser = "username"
Control.SSHCertStoreType = SSHCertStoreTypes.cstPFXFile;
Control.SSHCertStore = "cert.pfx";
Control.SSHCertStorePassword = "certpassword";
Control.SSHCertSubject = "*";
Control.SSHLogon("server", 22)
```

# SSHCert Property ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

A certificate to be used for authenticating the SSHUser .

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
property SSHCert: TiphCertificate read get_SSHCert write set_SSHCert;
```

## Remarks

To use public key authentication, SSHCert must contain a [Certificate](#certificate-type) with a valid private key. The certificate's public key value is sent to the server along with a signature produced using the private key. The server will first check to see if the public key values match what is known for the user, and then it will attempt to use those values to verify the signature.

**Example 1. User/Password Authentication:**

```text
Control.SSHAuthMode = SftpSSHAuthModes.amPassword
Control.SSHUser = "username"
Control.SSHPassword = "password"
Control.SSHLogon("server", 22)
```

 **Example 2. Public Key Authentication:**

```text
Control.SSHAuthMode = SftpSSHAuthModes.amPublicKey
Control.SSHUser = "username"
Control.SSHCertStoreType = SSHCertStoreTypes.cstPFXFile;
Control.SSHCertStore = "cert.pfx";
Control.SSHCertStorePassword = "certpassword";
Control.SSHCertSubject = "*";
Control.SSHLogon("server", 22)
```

 Please refer to the [Certificate](#certificate-type) type for a complete list of fields.

# SSHCompressionAlgorithms Property ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

The comma-separated list containing all allowable compression algorithms.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
property SSHCompressionAlgorithms: String read get_SSHCompressionAlgorithms write set_SSHCompressionAlgorithms;
```

## Default Value

'none,zlib'

## Remarks

During the Secure Shell (SSH) handshake, this list will be used to negotiate the compression algorithm to be used between the client and server. This list is used for both directions: client to server and server to client. When negotiating algorithms, each side sends a list of all algorithms it supports or allows. The algorithm chosen for each direction is the first algorithm to appear in the sender's list that the receiver supports. Therefore, it is important to list multiple algorithms in preferential order. If no algorithm can be agreed on, the component will raise an error and the connection will be aborted.

At least one supported algorithm must appear in this list. The following compression algorithms are supported by the component:

- zlib
- zlib@openssh.com
- none

# SSHEncryptionAlgorithms Property ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

The comma-separated list containing all allowable encryption algorithms.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
property SSHEncryptionAlgorithms: String read get_SSHEncryptionAlgorithms write set_SSHEncryptionAlgorithms;
```

## Default Value

'aes256-ctr,aes192-ctr,aes128-ctr,3des-ctr,aes256-gcm@openssh.com,aes128-gcm@openssh.com,chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com'

## Remarks

During the Secure Shell (SSH) handshake, this list will be used to negotiate the encryption algorithm to be used between the client and server. This list is used for both directions: client to server and server to client. When negotiating algorithms, each side sends a list of all algorithms it supports or allows. The algorithm chosen for each direction is the first algorithm to appear in the sender's list that the receiver supports. Therefore, it is important to list multiple algorithms in preferential order. If no algorithm can be agreed on, the component will raise an error and the connection will be aborted.

At least one supported algorithm must appear in this list. The following encryption algorithms are supported by the component:

- aes256-ctr
- aes256-cbc
- aes192-ctr
- aes192-cbc
- aes128-ctr
- aes128-cbc
- 3des-ctr
- 3des-cbc
- cast128-cbc
- blowfish-cbc
- arcfour
- arcfour128
- arcfour256
- aes256-gcm@openssh.com
- aes128-gcm@openssh.com
- chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com

# SSHHost Property ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

The address of the Secure Shell (SSH) host.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
property SSHHost: String read get_SSHHost write set_SSHHost;
```

## Default Value

''

## Remarks

The SSHHost property specifies the IP address (IP number in dotted internet format) or domain name of the remote host. It is set before a connection is attempted and cannot be changed once a connection is established.

If the SSHHost property is set to a domain name, a DNS request is initiated, and upon successful termination of the request, the SSHHost property is set to the corresponding address. If the search is not successful, an error is returned.

The SSHHost must be the same host that will be assumed for SSH as for the remote service being connected to.

# SSHPassword Property ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

The password for Secure Shell (SSH) password-based authentication.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
property SSHPassword: String read get_SSHPassword write set_SSHPassword;
```

## Default Value

''

## Remarks

SSHPassword specifies the password that is used to authenticate the client to the SSH server.

# SSHPort Property ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

The port on the Secure Shell (SSH) server where the SSH service is running; by default, 22.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
property SSHPort: Integer read get_SSHPort write set_SSHPort;
```

## Default Value

22

## Remarks

The SSHPort specifies a service port on the SSH host to connect to.

A valid port number (a value between 1 and 65535) is required for the connection to take place. The property must be set before a connection is attempted and cannot be changed once a connection is established. Any attempt to change this property while connected will fail with an error.

# SSHUser Property ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

The username for Secure Shell (SSH) authentication.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
property SSHUser: String read get_SSHUser write set_SSHUser;
```

## Default Value

''

## Remarks

SSHUser specifies the username that is used to authenticate the client to the SSH server. This property is required.

**Example 1. User/Password Authentication:**

```text
Control.SSHAuthMode = SftpSSHAuthModes.amPassword
Control.SSHUser = "username"
Control.SSHPassword = "password"
Control.SSHLogon("server", 22)
```

 **Example 2. Public Key Authentication:**

```text
Control.SSHAuthMode = SftpSSHAuthModes.amPublicKey
Control.SSHUser = "username"
Control.SSHCertStoreType = SSHCertStoreTypes.cstPFXFile;
Control.SSHCertStore = "cert.pfx";
Control.SSHCertStorePassword = "certpassword";
Control.SSHCertSubject = "*";
Control.SSHLogon("server", 22)
```

# Timeout Property ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

This property includes the timeout for the component.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
property Timeout: Integer read get_Timeout write set_Timeout;
```

## Default Value

60

## Remarks

If the Timeout property is set to 0, all operations return immediately, potentially failing with a *WOULDBLOCK* error if data cannot be sent immediately.

If Timeout is set to a positive value, data is sent in a blocking manner and the component will wait for the operation to complete before returning control. The component will handle any potential *WOULDBLOCK* errors internally and automatically retry the operation for a maximum of Timeout seconds.

The component will use [DoEvents](#doevents-method-scp-component) to enter an efficient wait loop during any potential waiting period, making sure that all system events are processed immediately as they arrive. This ensures that the host application does not freeze and remains responsive.

If Timeout expires, and the operation is not yet complete, the component raises an exception.

NOTE: By default, all timeouts are *inactivity timeouts*, that is, the timeout period is extended by Timeout seconds when any amount of data is successfully sent or received.

The default value for the Timeout property is 60 seconds.

# Config Method ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
function Config(ConfigurationString: String): String;
```

## Remarks

Config is a generic method available in every component. It is used to set and retrieve [configuration settings](#config-settings-scp-component) for the component.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the component, access to these *internal properties* is provided through the Config method.

To set a configuration setting named *PROPERTY*, you must call *Config("PROPERTY=VALUE")*, where *VALUE* is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a [configuration setting](#config-settings-scp-component), you must call *Config("PROPERTY")*. The value will be returned as a string.

# DecodePacket Method ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

Decodes a hex-encoded Secure Shell (SSH) packet.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
function DecodePacket(EncodedPacket: String): TBytes;
```

## Remarks

This method is used to decode an SSH packet created by [EncodePacket](#encodepacket-method-scp-component).

NOTE: This method is applicable only for reading and creating Secure Shell (SSH) packets for use within the [SSHCustomAuth](#sshcustomauth-event-scp-component) event.

# DoEvents Method ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

This method processes events from the internal message queue.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
procedure DoEvents();
```

## Remarks

When DoEvents is called, the component processes any available events. If no events are available, it waits for a preset period of time, and then returns.

# Download Method ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

Downloads a RemoteFile from a secure copy protocol (SCP) server.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
procedure Download();
```

## Remarks

The remote file specified by [RemoteFile](#remotefile-property-scp-component) is downloaded to the local file specified by [LocalFile](#localfile-property-scp-component), or it is retrieved through the [Transfer](#transfer-event-scp-component) event, if the [LocalFile](#localfile-property-scp-component) property is '' (empty string). [RemoteFile](#remotefile-property-scp-component) is an absolute or relative path on the server.

If a Secure Shell (SSH) session is not in place, one is automatically created by the component first.

**Example:**

```text
SCPControl.Localfile = "C:\localfile.txt"
SCPControl.RemoteFile = "remotefile.txt"
SCPControl.Download()

SCPControl.Localfile = "C:\localfile2.txt"
SCPControl.RemoteFile = "folder/remotefile2.txt"
SCPControl.Upload()
```

Multiple file uploads and downloads are supported through the use of filemasks.

To upload files matching a filemask, set [LocalFile](#localfile-property-scp-component) to a local path including a filemask. Set [RemotePath](#remotepath-property-scp-component) to the directory on the server where the files will be uploaded. In this case, [RemoteFile](#remotefile-property-scp-component) is ignored. All matching files will be upload when [Upload](#upload-method-scp-component) is called. The [StartTransfer](#starttransfer-event-scp-component), [Transfer](#transfer-event-scp-component), and [EndTransfer](#endtransfer-event-scp-component) events provide details about the individual file transfers.

To download files matching a filemask, set [RemoteFile](#remotefile-property-scp-component) to a filemask. The path may be specified as part of the value in [RemoteFile](#remotefile-property-scp-component) or may be set separately in [RemotePath](#remotepath-property-scp-component). [LocalFile](#localfile-property-scp-component) should be set to a local directory where files will be downloaded. When Download is called, all matching files are downloaded. The [StartTransfer](#starttransfer-event-scp-component), [Transfer](#transfer-event-scp-component), and [EndTransfer](#endtransfer-event-scp-component) events provide details about the individual file transfers. In the event an individual file fails to transfer, the [Error](#error-event-scp-component) event will fire.

# EncodePacket Method ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

Hex encodes a Secure Shell (SSH) packet.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
function EncodePacket(Packet: TBytes): String;
```

## Remarks

This method is used to encode a raw SSH packet created by [SetSSHParam](#setsshparam-method-scp-component).

NOTE: This method is applicable only for reading and creating Secure Shell (SSH) packets for use within the [SSHCustomAuth](#sshcustomauth-event-scp-component) event.

# GetSSHParam Method ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

Reads a field from a Secure Shell (SSH) packet's payload.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
function GetSSHParam(Payload: TBytes; Field: String): String;
```

## Remarks

This method is used to read the value of a particular field from an SSH packet's payload. *Payload* should contain the full payload of a packet received by an event such as SSHChannelRequest. *Field* is the name of a field to be read out of the packet.

The following is a list of the names of well-known channel request field names and their encodings:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| ChannelId (int32) | The Id of the channel that received the packet. |
| RequestType (string) | The type of channel requested. |

procedure Reset();
```

## Remarks

This method will reset the component's properties to their default values.

# SetDownloadStream Method ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

Sets the stream to which the downloaded data from the server will be written.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
procedure SetDownloadStream(DownloadStream: TStream);
```

## Remarks

If a download stream is set before the [Download](#download-method-scp-component) method is called, the downloaded data will be written to the stream. The stream should be open and normally set to position *0*.

The component will automatically close this stream if [CloseStreamAfterTransfer](#CloseStreamAfterTransfer) is True (default). If the stream is closed, you will need to call SetDownloadStream again before calling [Download](#download-method-scp-component) again.

The downloaded content will be written starting at the current position in the stream.

NOTE: SetDownloadStream and [LocalFile](#localfile-property-scp-component) will reset the other.

# SetSSHParam Method ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

Writes a field to the end of a payload.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
function SetSSHParam(Payload: TBytes; FieldType: String; FieldValue: String): TBytes;
```

## Remarks

This method is used to build the payload portion of a Secure Shell (SSH) packet to be sent later by a call to SendSSHPacket. *Payload* should contain the result of a previous call to SetSSHParam. *FieldType* is a string defining the type of field to be written to the packet. *FieldValue* should be the string representation of the field to be written.

The following is a list of supported field types and a description of how *FieldValue* should be encoded:

| i | A 32-bit integer, encoded as a textual representation of the value (e.g., "1234"). |
| l | A 64-bit integer, encoded as a textual representation of the value (e.g., "1234"). |
| b | A single byte, encoded as a textual representation of the value (e.g., "123"). |
| f | A boolean flag, encoded as a textual representation of the value (e.g., 'True' or 'False') |

NOTE: Integer values may be hexadecimal encoded by prefixing "0x" to the beginning of the string; otherwise, the value is assumed to be Base10.

NOTE: This method is applicable only for reading and creating Secure Shell (SSH) packets for use within the [SSHCustomAuth](#sshcustomauth-event-scp-component) event.

# SetUploadStream Method ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

Sets the stream from which the component will read data to upload to the server.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
procedure SetUploadStream(UploadStream: TStream);
```

## Remarks

If an upload stream is set before the [Upload](#upload-method-scp-component) method is called, the content of the stream will be read by the component and uploaded to the server. The stream should be open and normally set to position *0*. The component will automatically close this stream if [CloseStreamAfterTransfer](#CloseStreamAfterTransfer) is True (default). If the stream is closed, you will need to call SetUploadStream again before calling [Upload](#upload-method-scp-component) again. The content of the stream will be read from the current position all the way to the end and no bytes will be skipped.

NOTE: SetUploadStream and [LocalFile](#localfile-property-scp-component) will reset the other.

# SSHLogoff Method ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

Logs off from the Secure Shell (SSH) server.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
procedure SSHLogon(SSHHost: String; SSHPort: Integer);
```

## Remarks

Logs on to the Secure Shell (SSH) server using the current [SSHUser](#sshuser-property-scp-component) and [SSHPassword](#sshpassword-property-scp-component). This will perform the SSH handshake and authentication.

**Example. Logging On:**

```text
SSHClient.SSHUser = "username"
SSHClient.SSHPassword = "password"
SSHClient.SSHLogon("sshHost", sshPort)
```

# Upload Method ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

Uploads a file specified by LocalFile to a secure copy protocol (SCP) server.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
procedure Upload();
```

## Remarks

The local file specified by [LocalFile](#localfile-property-scp-component) is uploaded to the remote file specified by [RemoteFile](#remotefile-property-scp-component). [RemoteFile](#remotefile-property-scp-component) is either an absolute path on the server or a path relative to the server's current directory.

If a Secure Shell (SSH) session is not in place, one is automatically created by the component first.

**Example**

```text
SCPControl.Localfile = "C:\localfile.txt"
SCPControl.RemoteFile = "remotefile.txt"
SCPControl.Download()

SCPControl.Localfile = "C:\localfile2.txt"

# SSHCustomAuth Event ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

Fired when the component is doing a custom authentication.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
type TSSHCustomAuthEvent = procedure (
  Sender: TObject;
  var Packet: String
) of Object;
property OnSSHCustomAuth: TSSHCustomAuthEvent read FOnSSHCustomAuth write FOnSSHCustomAuth;
```

## Remarks

SSHCustomAuth is fired during the user authentication stage of the Secure Shell (SSH) logon process if [SSHAuthMode](#sshauthmode-property-scp-component) is set to amCustom. *Packet* contains the last raw SSH packet sent by the server, in HEX-encoded format.

The client should create a new raw SSH packet to send to the server and set *Packet* to the HEX-encoded representation of the packet to send.

In all cases, *Packet* will start with the message type field.

To read the incoming packet, call [DecodePacket](#decodepacket-method-scp-component) and then use the [GetSSHParam](#getsshparam-method-scp-component) and [GetSSHParamBytes](#getsshparambytes-method-scp-component) methods. To create a packet, use the [SetSSHParam](#setsshparam-method-scp-component) method and then call [EncodePacket](#encodepacket-method-scp-component) to obtain a HEX-encoded value and assign this to the *Packet* parameter.

# SSHKeyboardInteractive Event ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

Fired when the component receives a request for user input from the server.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
type TSSHKeyboardInteractiveEvent = procedure (
  Sender: TObject;
  const Name: String;
  const Instructions: String;
  const Prompt: String;
  var Response: String;
  EchoResponse: Boolean
) of Object;
property OnSSHKeyboardInteractive: TSSHKeyboardInteractiveEvent read FOnSSHKeyboardInteractive write FOnSSHKeyboardInteractive;
```

## Remarks

SSHKeyboardInteractive is fired during the user authentication stage of the Secure Shell (SSH) logon process. During authentication, the component will request a list of available authentication methods for the [SSHUser](#sshuser-property-scp-component). For example, if the [SSHHost](#sshhost-property-scp-component) responds with "keyboard-interactive", the component will fire this event to allow the client application to set the password.

During authentication, the SSH server may respond with a request for the user's authentication information. *Name* is a server-provided value associated with the authentication method such as "CRYPTOCard Authentication". *Instructions* will contain specific instructions, also supplied by the server, for how the user should respond.

Along with these values, the server will also send at least one input *Prompt* to be displayed to and filled out by the user. *Response* should be set to the user's input, and will be sent back in the user authentication information response. *EchoResponse* is a server recommendation for whether or not the user's response should be echoed back during input.

NOTE: The server may send several prompts in a single packet. The component will fire the SSHKeyboardInteractive event once for each prompt.

# SSHServerAuthentication Event ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

Fired after the server presents its public key to the client.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
type TSSHServerAuthenticationEvent = procedure (
  Sender: TObject;
  const HostKey: String;
  const HostKeyB: TBytes;
  const Fingerprint: String;
  const KeyAlgorithm: String;
  const CertSubject: String;
  const CertIssuer: String;
  const Status: String;
  var Accept: Boolean
) of Object;
property OnSSHServerAuthentication: TSSHServerAuthenticationEvent read FOnSSHServerAuthentication write FOnSSHServerAuthentication;
```

## Remarks

This event is fired when the client can decide whether or not to continue with the connection process. If the public key is known to be a valid key for the Secure Shell (SSH) server, *Accept* should be set to True within the event. Otherwise, the server will not be authenticated and the connection will be broken.

*Accept* will be True only if either *HostKey* or *Fingerprint* is identical to the value of [SSHAcceptServerHostKey](#sshacceptserverhostkey-property-scp-component).

Accept may be set to True manually to accept the server host key.

NOTE: SSH's security inherently relies on client verification of the host key. Ignoring the host key and always setting *Accept* to True is strongly discouraged, and could cause potentially serious security vulnerabilities in your application. It is recommended that clients maintain a list of known keys for each server and check *HostKey* against this list each time a connection is attempted.

**Host Key** contains the full binary text of the key, in the same format used internally by SSH.

*Fingerprint* holds the SHA-256 hash of *HostKey* in the hex-encoded form: *0a:1b:2c:3d*. To configure the hash algorithm used to calculate this value, see [SSHFingerprintHashAlgorithm](#SSHFingerprintHashAlgorithm). To configure the encoding format used when displaying this value, see [SSHFingerprintEncoding](#SSHFingerprintEncoding).

*KeyAlgorithm* identifies the host key algorithm. The following values are supported:

- ssh-rsa
- ssh-dss
- rsa-sha2-256
- rsa-sha2-512
- x509v3-sign-rsa
- x509v3-sign-dss
- ecdsa-sha2-nistp256
- ecdsa-sha2-nistp384
- ecdsa-sha2-nistp521

 To limit the accepted host key algorithms, refer to [SSHPublicKeyAlgorithms](#SSHPublicKeyAlgorithms).

*CertSubject* is the subject of the certificate. This is applicable only when *KeyAlgorithm* is "x509v3-sign-rsa" or "x509v3-sign-dss".

*CertIssuer* is the issuer of the certificate. This is applicable only when *KeyAlgorithm* is "x509v3-sign-rsa" or "x509v3-sign-dss".

*Status* is reserved for future use.

# SSHStatus Event ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

Fired to track the progress of the secure connection.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
type TSSHStatusEvent = procedure (
  Sender: TObject;
  const Message: String
) of Object;
property OnSSHStatus: TSSHStatusEvent read FOnSSHStatus write FOnSSHStatus;
```

## Remarks

The event is fired for informational and logging purposes only. Used to track the progress of the connection.

# StartTransfer Event ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

Fired when a file starts downloading or uploading.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
type TStartTransferEvent = procedure (
  Sender: TObject;
  Direction: Integer;
  const LocalFile: String;
  const RemoteFile: String;
  const RemotePath: String;
  var FilePermissions: String
) of Object;
property OnStartTransfer: TStartTransferEvent read FOnStartTransfer write FOnStartTransfer;
```

## Remarks

The StartTransfer event fires when the file starts transferring.

The *Direction* parameter shows whether the client (0) or the server (1) is sending the data.

The *LocalFile*, *RemoteFile*, and *RemotePath* parameters provide information about the current transfer.

The *FilePermissions* parameter may be used to set the remote file permissions on file currently being uploaded. It will also be populated with the current permissions of the remote file when downloading. See [FilePermissions](#filepermissions-property-scp-component) for more details.

# Transfer Event ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

Fired during file download or upload.

## Syntax

*Delphi Syntax*

```text
type TTransferEvent = procedure (
  Sender: TObject;
  Direction: Integer;
  const LocalFile: String;
  const RemoteFile: String;
  const RemotePath: String;
  BytesTransferred: Int64;
  PercentDone: Integer;
  const Text: String;
  const TextB: TBytes
) of Object;
property OnTransfer: TTransferEvent read FOnTransfer write FOnTransfer;
```

## Remarks

One or more Transfer events are fired during file transfer. The *BytesTransferred* parameter shows the number of bytes transferred since the beginning of the transfer.

*Text* contains the portion of the file data being delivered.

The *Direction* parameter shows whether the client (0) or the server (1) is sending the data.

The *LocalFile*, *RemoteFile*, and *RemotePath* parameters provide information about the current transfer.

The *PercentDone* parameter shows the progress of the transfer in the corresponding direction. If *PercentDone* can not be calculated the value will be -1.

                               "CN=cert_subject");
sftp.SSHUser = "test";
sftp.SSHLogon("myhost", 22);
```

```csharp
certmgr.CertStoreType = CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11;
certmgr.OnCertList += (s, e) => {
  secKeyBlob = e.CertEncoded;
};
certmgr.CertStore = @"C:\Program Files\OpenSC Project\OpenSC\pkcs11\opensc-pkcs11.dll";
certmgr.CertStorePassword = "123456"; // PIN
certmgr.ListStoreCertificates();

sftp.SSHCert = new Certificate(CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11, secKeyBlob, "123456", "*");
sftp.SSHUser = "test";
sftp.SSHLogon("myhost", 22);
```

# Config Settings ([SCP](#scp-component) Component)

 The component accepts one or more of the following *configuration settings*. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the component, access to these *internal properties* is provided through the [Config](#config-method-scp-component) method.

### SCP Config Settings

**DirectoryPermissions**: The permissions of folders created on the remote host.This configuration setting is applicable only when [RecursiveMode](#RecursiveMode) is set to True. If new folders are created on the remote host as a result of the [Upload](#upload-method-scp-component) operation, this configuration setting specifies the permissions these new folders will be assigned. This is a four-digit (4-digit) octal value. See [FilePermissions](#filepermissions-property-scp-component) for more details on expected values. The default value is "0700".

**LastAccessedTime**: The last accessed time of the remote file.This configuration setting returns the last accessed time of the remote file. It is applicable only for download when [PreserveFileTime](#PreserveFileTime) is set to True. This may be queried within the [StartTransfer](#starttransfer-event-scp-component) event.

**LastModifiedTime**: The last modified time of the remote file.This configuration setting returns the last modified time of the remote file. It is applicable only for download when [PreserveFileTime](#PreserveFileTime) is set to True. This may be queried within the [StartTransfer](#starttransfer-event-scp-component) event.

**PreserveFileTime**: Preserves the file's modified time during transfer.If this configuration setting is set to True, the component will preserve the file's modified time during transfer. This is applicable to both uploads and downloads. The default value is True.

When enabled, the component will also populate [LastModifiedTime](#LastModifiedTime) and [LastAccessedTime](#LastAccessedTime) configuration settings. These are applicable only during download and may be used to check the times of the remote file from within the [StartTransfer](#starttransfer-event-scp-component) event. To cancel a transfer, call the [Interrupt](#interrupt-method-scp-component) method.

**RecursiveMode**: If set to true the component will recursively upload or download files.When a filemask is specified in [LocalFile](#localfile-property-scp-component) or [RemoteFile](#remotefile-property-scp-component) this configuration setting specifies if subdirectories and files are transferred as well. By default, this value is False and only files in the specified directory will be transferred. If set to True, recursion will be used to transfer all child folders and files.

**ServerResponseWindow**: The time to wait for a server response in milliseconds.After an operation is complete, the server may still return an error. This configuration setting controls the amount of time the component will wait for an error to be returned. This value is specified in milliseconds. The default value is "20".

### SSHClient Config Settings

**ChannelDataEOL[ChannelId]**: Used to break the incoming data stream into chunks.By *default* [MaxChannelDataLength](#MaxChannelDataLength) is *0* and [ChannelDataEOL](#ChannelDataEOL) is an empty string. SSHChannelData fires whenever an SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_DATA packet is received.

If [MaxChannelDataLength](#MaxChannelDataLength) is greater than *0* and [ChannelDataEOL](#ChannelDataEOL) is a nonempty string, the component will internally buffer data waiting to fire SSHChannelData until either [MaxChannelDataLength](#MaxChannelDataLength) is reached or [ChannelDataEOL](#ChannelDataEOL) is found, whichever comes first. Query [ChannelDataEOLFound](#ChannelDataEOLFound) to know which condition was met. The buffer is reset any time SSHChannelData fires.

[ChannelDataEOL](#ChannelDataEOL) and [MaxChannelDataLength](#MaxChannelDataLength) *must* be set together or unexpected behavior could occur.

**ChannelDataEOLFound[ChannelId]**: Determines if ChannelDataEOL was found.If *True*,then [ChannelDataEOL](#ChannelDataEOL) was found. If *False*, then [MaxChannelDataLength](#MaxChannelDataLength) was reached.

This configuration setting is valid only when queried inside SSHChannelData, [MaxChannelDataLength](#MaxChannelDataLength) > 0, and [ChannelDataEOL](#ChannelDataEOL) is nonempty.

**ClientSSHVersionString**: The SSH version string used by the component.This configuration setting specifies the Secure Shell (SSH) version string used by the component. The default value is "SSH-2.0-IPWorks SSH Client 2024".

Most SSH servers expect the SSH version string to have the expected format "SSH-protocol version-software version". See above for an example.

**ConnectAndLogin**: Whether the component performs a full SSH login.The default value is *True*. When enabled, calling the Connect method establishes the TCP connection and performs a full SSH login.

When set to *False*, calling Connect will only establish the underlying TCP connection; the SSH login will not be performed. This may be useful in cases in which it is desirable to separate the connection and logon operations; for instance, confirming a host is available before authenticating with it.

When [ConnectAndLogin](#ConnectAndLogin) is *False*, call [SSHLogon](#sshlogon-method-scp-component) with the same [SSHHost](#sshhost-property-scp-component) and [SSHPort](#sshport-property-scp-component) used to connect in order to complete the SSH login over the existing connection. Note that [SSHLogon](#sshlogon-method-scp-component) always performs a full SSH login regardless of the value of this configuration setting.

**DoNotRepeatAuthMethods**: Whether the component will repeat authentication methods during multifactor authentication.The default value is *True*. When set to *False*, the component will repeat authentication methods that have already been completed during multifactor authentication.

**EnablePageantAuth**: Whether to use a key stored in Pageant to perform client authentication.This configuration setting controls whether Pageant authentication is disabled, enabled, or required. When enabled or required, the component attempts to communicate with PuTTY's ssh-agent, called "Pageant", over shared memory to perform public key authentication. Possible values and the corresponding behavior is described as follows:

| Value | Description |
| --- | --- |
| 0 (Disabled - default) | No communication with Pageant is attempted. |
| 1 (Enabled) | Pageant authentication is used if available. If Pageant is not running, or does not contain the expected key, no error is thrown. |
| 2 (Required) | Only Pageant authentication is used. If Pageant is not running, or does not contain the expected key, an error is thrown. |

**Example 1. Enabling Pageant:**

```text
component.Config("EnablePageantAuth=1");
component.SSHUser = "sshuser";
component.SSHLogon("localhost", 22);
```

NOTE: This functionality is available only on Windows.

**KerberosDelegation**: If true, asks for credentials with delegation enabled during authentication.The default value is "True". If set to "False", the client will not ask for credentials delegation support during authentication.

NOTE: Even if the client asks for delegation, the server/KDC might not grant it, and authentication will still succeed.

**KerberosRealm**: The fully qualified domain name of the Kerberos Realm to use for GSSAPI authentication.This property may be set to the fully qualified (DNS) name of the kerberos realm (or Windows Active Directory domain name) to use during GSSAPI authentication. This can be used to force authentication with a given realm if the client and server machines are not part of the same domain.

**KerberosSPN**: The Kerberos Service Principal Name of the SSH host.This property can be set to specify the Service Principal Name (SPN) associated with the SSH service on the remote host. This will usually be in the form "host/fqdn.of.sshhost[@REALM]". If not specified, the component will assume the SPN is based on the value of the [SSHHost](#sshhost-property-scp-component) property and the kerberos realm used for authentication.

**KeyRenegotiationThreshold**: Sets the threshold for the SSH Key Renegotiation.This property allows you to specify the threshold, in the number of bytes, for the Secure Shell (SSH) key renegotiation. The default value for this property is set to 1 GB.

**Example. Setting the Threshold to 500 MB:**

```text
SSHComponent.Config("KeyRenegotiationThreshold=524288000")
```

**LogLevel**: Specifies the level of detail that is logged.This configuration setting controls the level of detail that is logged through the [Log](#log-event-scp-component) event. Possible values are as follows:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 (None) | No messages are logged. |
| 1 (Info - Default) | Informational events such as Secure Shell (SSH) handshake messages are logged. |
| 2 (Verbose) | Detailed data such as individual packet information are logged. |
| 3 (Debug) | Debug data including all relevant sent and received bytes are logged. |

**MaxChannelDataLength[ChannelId]**: The maximum amount of data to accumulate when no ChannelDataEOL is found.By *default* [MaxChannelDataLength](#MaxChannelDataLength) is *0* and [ChannelDataEOL](#ChannelDataEOL) is an empty string. SSHChannelData fires whenever an SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_DATA packet is received.

If [MaxChannelDataLength](#MaxChannelDataLength) is greater than *0* and [ChannelDataEOL](#ChannelDataEOL) is a nonempty string, the component will internally buffer data waiting to fire SSHChannelData until either [MaxChannelDataLength](#MaxChannelDataLength) is reached or [ChannelDataEOL](#ChannelDataEOL) is found, whichever comes first. Query [ChannelDataEOLFound](#ChannelDataEOLFound) to know which condition was met. The buffer is reset any time SSHChannelData fires.

[ChannelDataEOL](#ChannelDataEOL) and [MaxChannelDataLength](#MaxChannelDataLength) *must* be set together or unexpected behavior could occur.

**MaxPacketSize**: The maximum packet size of the channel, in bytes.This configuration setting specifies the maximum size of an individual data packet, in bytes, that can be sent to the sender.

**MaxWindowSize**: The maximum window size allowed for the channel, in bytes.This configuration setting specifies how many bytes of channel data can be sent to the sender of this message without adjusting the window.

NOTE: This value may be changed during the connection, but the window size can only be increased, not decreased.

**NegotiatedStrictKex**: Returns whether strict key exchange was negotiated to be used.This configuration setting specifies whether strict key exchange (strict kex) was negotiated during the SSH handshake. If strict kex is being used, then this will return *"True"*. If strict kex is not being used, then this will return *"False"*.

```text
component.Config("NegotiatedStrictKex")
```

**PasswordPrompt**: The text of the password prompt used in keyboard-interactive authentication.This configuration setting optionally specifies a pattern to be matched to the prompt received from the server during keyboard-interactive authentication. If a matching prompt is detected the component automatically responds to the prompt with the password specified by [SSHPassword](#sshpassword-property-scp-component).

This provides an easy way to automatically reply to prompts with the password if one is presented by the server. The password will be autofilled in the *Response* parameter of the [SSHKeyboardInteractive](#sshkeyboardinteractive-event-scp-component) event in the case of a match.

The following special characters are supported for pattern matching:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| ? | Any single character. |
| * | Any characters or no characters (e.g., C*t matches Cat, Cot, Coast, Ct). |
| [,-] | A range of characters (e.g., [a-z], [a], [0-9], [0-9,a-d,f,r-z]). |
| \ | The slash is ignored and exact matching is performed on the next character. |

If these characters need to be used as a literal in a pattern, then they must be escaped by surrounding them with brackets []. NOTE: "]" and "-" do not need to be escaped. See below for the escape sequences:

| Character | Escape Sequence |
| --- | --- |
| ? | [?] |
| * | [*] |
| [ | [[] |
| \ | [\] |

For example, to match the value [Something].txt, specify the pattern [[]Something].txt.

**PreferredDHGroupBits**: The size (in bits) of the preferred modulus (p) to request from the server.This configuration setting may be when using the diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha1 or diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha256 key exchange algorithms to control the preferred size, in bits, of the modulus (p) prime number to request from the server. Acceptable values are between 1024 and 8192.

**RecordLength**: The length of received data records.If set to a positive value, this configuration setting defines the length of data records to be received. The component will accumulate data until RecordLength is reached and only then will it fire the DataIn event with data of length RecordLength. This allows data to be received as records of known length. This value can be changed at any time, including within the DataIn event.

The default value is 0, meaning this setting is not used.

**ServerSSHVersionString**: The remote host's SSH version string.This configuration setting will return the remote host's SSH version string, which can help when identifying problematic servers. This configuration setting is read-only.

**SignedSSHCert**: The CA signed client public key used when authenticating.When authenticating via public key authentication, this setting may be set to the certificate authority (CA) signed client's public key. This is useful when the server has been configured to trust client keys signed by a particular CA. For instance:

```text
component.Config("SignedSSHCert=ssh-rsa-cert-v01@openssh.com AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAADAQABAAAB...");
```

 The algorithm such as *ssh-rsa-cert-v01@openssh.com* in the previous string is used as part of the authentication process. To use a different algorithm, simply change this value. For instance, all of the following are acceptable with the same signed public key:

- *ssh-rsa-cert-v01@openssh.com AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAADAQABAAAB...*
- *rsa-sha2-256-cert-v01@openssh.com AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAADAQABAAAB...*
- *rsa-sha2-512-cert-v01@openssh.com AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAADAQABAAAB...*

**SSHAcceptAnyServerHostKey**: If set the component will accept any key presented by the server.The default value is "False". Set this to "True" to accept any key presented by the server.

**SSHAcceptServerCAKey**: The CA public key that signed the server's host key.If the server's host key was signed by a CA, this configuration setting may be used to specify the CA's public key. If specified, the component will trust any server's host key that was signed by the CA. For instance:

```text
component.Config("SSHAcceptServerCAKey=ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAADAQAB...");
```

**SSHAcceptServerHostKeyFingerPrint**: The fingerprint(s) of the server host keys to accept.This configuration setting specifies one or more fingerprints that should be accepted as the servers host key. Each fingerprint should be represented using the hash algorithm and encoding format defined by the [SSHFingerprintHashAlgorithm](#SSHFingerprintHashAlgorithm) and [SSHFingerprintEncoding](#SSHFingerprintEncoding) configs, respectively.

By default, this config should be specified as the comma-separated list of hex-encoded SHA256 hashes of possible server host keys.

**Example:**

```text
// Assuming default values. Hex-encoded, SHA256 hash of the expected host key
SSHClient.Config("SSHAcceptServerHostKeyFingerPrint=61:2d:89:9c:55:67:5e:ca:22:86:fc:f6:07:59:67:e0:c7:77:08:1f:cc:d9:93:f3:f9:63:21:15:3e:0c:a2:1b");

// Base64-encoded, SHA256 hash of the expected host key
SSHClient.Config("SSHFingerprintEncoding=1");
SSHClient.Config("SSHAcceptServerHostKeyFingerPrint=n4bQgYhMfWWaL+qgxVrQFaO/TxsrC4Is0V1sFbDwCgg=");
```

 If the server's fingerprint matches one of the values supplied, the component will accept the host key.

**SSHFingerprintEncoding**: Specifies the encoding used when displaying the SSH host key fingerprint.This setting determines how the SSH host key fingerprint is displayed after it has been computed using the algorithm specified by [SSHFingerprintHashAlgorithm](#SSHFingerprintHashAlgorithm). Possible values are:

- *0* (Hex Encoded)
- *1* (Base64 Encoded - Default)

For example, when set to *0*, the Fingerprint parameter in [SSHServerAuthentication](#sshserverauthentication-event-scp-component) will be formatted like: *0a:1b:2c:3d*. When set to *1*, the Fingerprint parameter in [SSHServerAuthentication](#sshserverauthentication-event-scp-component) will be formatted like:

```plaintext
n4bQgYhMfWWaL+qgxVrQFaO/TxsrC4Is0V1sFbDwCgg=
```

.

Note that this config is also applicable when querying the [SSHFingerprintMD5](#SSHFingerprintMD5), [SSHFingerprintSHA1](#SSHFingerprintSHA1), or [SSHFingerprintSHA256](#SSHFingerprintSHA256) configuration settings.

Additionally, note that this config is also applicable if specifying the host key fingerprint via [SSHAcceptServerHostKeyFingerPrint](#SSHAcceptServerHostKeyFingerPrint). The value specified via [SSHAcceptServerHostKeyFingerPrint](#SSHAcceptServerHostKeyFingerPrint) should be specified according to the format or encoding specified by this configuration setting.

**SSHFingerprintHashAlgorithm**: The algorithm used to calculate the fingerprint.This configuration setting controls which hash algorithm is used to calculate the hostkey's fingerprint, displayed when [SSHServerAuthentication](#sshserverauthentication-event-scp-component) fires. Valid values are as follows:

- *MD5*
- *SHA1*
- *SHA256* (default)

**SSHFingerprintMD5**: The server hostkey's MD5 fingerprint.This configuration setting may be queried in [SSHServerAuthentication](#sshserverauthentication-event-scp-component) to get the server hostkey's MD5 fingerprint.

**SSHFingerprintSHA1**: The server hostkey's SHA1 fingerprint.This configuration setting may be queried in [SSHServerAuthentication](#sshserverauthentication-event-scp-component) to get the server hostkey's SHA-1 fingerprint.

**SSHFingerprintSHA256**: The server hostkey's SHA256 fingerprint.This configuration setting may be queried in [SSHServerAuthentication](#sshserverauthentication-event-scp-component) to get the server hostkey's SHA-256 fingerprint.

**SSHKeepAliveCountMax**: The maximum number of keep alive packets to send without a response.This configuration setting specifies the maximum number of keep-alive packets to send when no response is received. Normally a response to a keep-alive packet is received right away. If no response is received, the component will continue to send keep-alive packets until [SSHKeepAliveCountMax](#SSHKeepAliveCountMax) is reached. If this is reached, the component will assume the connection is broken and disconnect. The default value is 5.

**SSHKeepAliveInterval**: The interval between keep alive packets.This configuration setting specifies the number of seconds between keep alive packets. If set to a positive value, the component will send a SSH keep-alive packet after [KeepAliveInterval](#KeepAliveInterval) seconds of inactivity. This configuration setting takes effect only when there is no activity; if any data are sent or received over the connection, it will reset the timer.

The default value is 0, meaning no keep alives will be sent.

NOTE: The [SSHReverseTunnel](SSHReverseTunnel.md#SSHReverseTunnel) component uses a default value of 30.

**SSHKeyExchangeAlgorithms**: Specifies the supported key exchange algorithms.This configuration setting may be used to specify the list of supported key exchange algorithms used during Secure Shell (SSH) negotiation. The value should contain a comma-separated list of algorithms. Supported algorithms are as follows:

- curve25519-sha256
- curve25519-sha256@libssh.org
- diffie-hellman-group1-sha1
- diffie-hellman-group14-sha1
- diffie-hellman-group14-sha256
- diffie-hellman-group16-sha512
- diffie-hellman-group18-sha512
- diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha256
- diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha1
- ecdh-sha2-nistp256
- ecdh-sha2-nistp384
- ecdh-sha2-nistp521
- gss-group14-sha256
- gss-group16-sha512
- gss-nistp256-sha256
- gss-curve25519-sha256
- gss-group14-sha1
- gss-gex-sha1
- mlkem768x25519-sha256

 The default value is *curve25519-sha256,curve25519-sha256@libssh.org,diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha256,diffie-hellman-group14-sha256,diffie-hellman-group16-sha512,diffie-hellman-group18-sha512,ecdh-sha2-nistp256,ecdh-sha2-nistp384,ecdh-sha2-nistp521,mlkem768x25519-sha256,diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha1,diffie-hellman-group14-sha1,diffie-hellman-group1-sha1,gss-group14-sha256,gss-group16-sha512,gss-nistp256-sha256,gss-curve25519-sha256,gss-group14-sha1,gss-gex-sha1*.

**SSHKeyRenegotiate**: Causes the component to renegotiate the SSH keys.Once this configuration setting is queried, the component will renegotiate the SSH keys with the remote host.

**Example 3. Renegotiating SSH Keys:**

```text
SSHClient.Config("SSHKeyRenegotiate")
```

**SSHMacAlgorithms**: Specifies the supported Mac algorithms.This configuration setting may be used to specify an alternate list of supported Mac algorithms used during SSH negotiation. This also specifies the order in which the Mac algorithms are preferred. The value should contain a comma-separated list of algorithms. Supported algorithms are as follows:

- hmac-sha1
- hmac-md5
- hmac-sha1-96
- hmac-md5-96
- hmac-sha2-256
- hmac-sha2-256-96
- hmac-sha2-512
- hmac-sha2-512-96
- hmac-ripemd160
- hmac-ripemd160-96
- hmac-sha2-256-etm@openssh.com
- hmac-sha2-512-etm@openssh.com
- hmac-sha2-256-96-etm@openssh.com
- hmac-sha2-512-96-etm@openssh.com
- umac-64@openssh.com
- umac-64-etm@openssh.com
- umac-128@openssh.com
- umac-128-etm@openssh.com

 The default value is *hmac-sha2-256,hmac-sha2-512,hmac-sha1,hmac-md5,hmac-ripemd160,hmac-sha1-96,hmac-md5-96,hmac-sha2-256-96,hmac-sha2-512-96,hmac-ripemd160-96,hmac-sha2-256-etm@openssh.com,hmac-sha2-512-etm@openssh.com,umac-64@openssh.com,umac-64-etm@openssh.com,umac-128@openssh.com,umac-128-etm@openssh.com*.

**SSHPubKeyAuthSigAlgorithms**: Specifies the enabled signature algorithms that may be used when attempting public key authentication.This setting specifies a list of signature algorithms that may be used when authenticating to the server using public key authentication. This applies only when public key authentication is performed by the client.

The setting should be a comma-separated list of algorithms. At runtime, the component will evaluate the specified algorithms, and if the algorithm is applicable to the certificate specified in [SSHCert](#sshcert-property-scp-component), it will be used. If the algorithm is not applicable, the component will evaluate the next algorithm. Possible values are as follows:

- ssh-rsa
- rsa-sha2-256
- rsa-sha2-512
- ssh-dss
- ecdsa-sha2-nistp256
- ecdsa-sha2-nistp384
- ecdsa-sha2-nistp521
- ssh-ed25519
- x509v3-sign-rsa
- x509v3-sign-dss

The default value in Windows is *ssh-rsa,rsa-sha2-256,rsa-sha2-512,ssh-dss,ecdsa-sha2-nistp256,ecdsa-sha2-nistp384,ecdsa-sha2-nistp521,ssh-ed25519*.

**rsa-sha2-256 and rsa-sha2-512 notes**

The component will query the server for supported algorithms when connecting. If the server indicates support for *rsa-sha2-256* or *rsa-sha2-512* and the algorithm is present in the list defined by this setting (as in the default value), that algorithm will be used instead of *ssh-rsa* even when *ssh-rsa* appears first in the list.

For the *rsa-sha2-256* and *rsa-sha2-512* algorithms to be automatically preferred, the server must support the *ext-info-c* mechanism. In practice, older servers do not support this, and in that case, *ssh-rsa* will be used because it appears first in the list. Newer servers do support this mechanism, and in that case, *rsa-sha2-256* or *rsa-sha2-512* will be used even though it appears after *ssh-rsa*.

This behavior has been carefully designed to provide maximum compatibility while automatically using more secure algorithms when connecting to servers that support them.

**SSHPublicKeyAlgorithms**: Specifies the supported public key algorithms for the server's public key. This configuration setting specifies the allowed public key algorithms for the server's public key. This list controls only the public key algorithm used when authenticating the server's public key. This list has no bearing on the public key algorithms that can be used by the client when performing public key authentication to the server. The default value is *ssh-ed25519,ecdsa-sha2-nistp256,ecdsa-sha2-nistp384,ecdsa-sha2-nistp521,rsa-sha2-256,rsa-sha2-512,ssh-rsa,ssh-dss,x509v3-sign-rsa,x509v3-sign-dss*.

**SSHVersionPattern**: The pattern used to match the remote host's version string.This configuration setting specifies the pattern used to accept or deny the remote host's SSH version string. It takes a comma-delimited list of patterns to match. The default value is "*SSH-1.99-*,*SSH-2.0-*" and will accept connections from SSH 1.99 and 2.0 hosts. As an example, the following value would accept connections for SSH 1.99, 2.0, and 2.99 hosts.

```text
*SSH-1.99-*,*SSH-2.0-*,*SSH-2.99-*
```

**TryAllAvailableAuthMethods**: If set to true, the component will try all available authentication methods.The default value is *False*. When set to *True*, the component will try to authenticate using all methods that it has credentials for and the server supports.

**UseStrictKeyExchange**: Specifies how strict key exchange is supported.This configuration setting controls whether strict key exchange (strict kex) is enabled to mitigate the Terrapin attack. When enabled, the component will indicate support for strict key exchange by automatically including the pseudo-algorithm *kex-strict-c-v00@openssh.com* for client components and *kex-strict-s-v00@openssh.com* for server components in the list of supported key exchange algorithms.

Because both client and server must implement strict key exchange to effectively mitigate the Terrapin attack, the component provides options to further control the behavior in different scenarios. Possible values for this setting are as follows:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 | Disabled. Strict key exchange is not supported in the component. |
| 1 (default) | Enabled, but not enforced. This setting enables strict key exchange, but if the remote host does not support strict key exchange the connection is still allowed to continue. |
| 2 | Enabled, but will reject affected algorithms if the remote host does not support strict key exchange. If the remote host supports strict key exchange, all algorithms may be used. If the remote host does not support strict key exchange, the connection will continue only if the selected encryption and message authentication code (MAC) algorithms are not affected by the Terrapin attack. |
| 3 | Required. If the remote host does not support strict key exchange, the connection will fail. |

**WaitForChannelClose**: Whether to wait for channels to be closed before disconnected.This configuration setting controls whether the component will wait for a server response to the SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_CLOSE when disconnecting. When the component disconnects, it will first attempt to close all open channels by sending a SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_CLOSE for each channel. This configuration setting controls whether the component will wait for a server response after sending the messages.

When *True* (default), the component will wait for a response to the channel close message until the responses have been received, the server closes the connection, or [Timeout](#timeout-property-scp-component) seconds is reached.

When *False*, the component will still send the channel close messages, but it will not wait for a response and will proceed to close the connection.

**WaitForServerDisconnect**: Whether to wait for the server to close the connection.This configuration setting controls whether to wait for the server to close the connection when [SSHLogoff](#sshlogoff-method-scp-component) is called.

When set to *True*, the component will initiate the disconnection sequence by sending SSH_MSG_DISCONNECT, but it will not close the connection and instead will wait for the server to close the connection. Setting this to True may be beneficial in circumstances in which many connections are being established, to avoid port exhaustion when sockets are in a TIME_WAIT state. Allowing the server to close the connection avoids the TIME_WAIT state of socket on the client machine.

When set to *False* (default), the client will close the connection. It is recommended to use this value unless there is a specific need to change it.

### TCPClient Config Settings

**CloseStreamAfterTransfer**: If true, the component will close the upload or download stream after the transfer.This configuration setting determines whether the input or output stream is closed after the transfer completes. When set to True (default), all streams will be closed after a transfer is completed. To keep streams open after the transfer of data, set this to False. The default value is True.

**ConnectionTimeout**: Sets a separate timeout value for establishing a connection.When set, this configuration setting allows you to specify a different timeout value for establishing a connection. Otherwise, the component will use [Timeout](#timeout-property-scp-component) for establishing a connection and transmitting/receiving data.

**FirewallAutoDetect**: Tells the component whether or not to automatically detect and use firewall system settings, if available.This configuration setting is provided for use by components that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

**FirewallHost**: Name or IP address of firewall (optional).If a [FirewallHost](#FirewallHost) is given, requested connections will be authenticated through the specified firewall when connecting.

If the [FirewallHost](#FirewallHost) setting is set to a Domain Name, a DNS request is initiated. Upon successful termination of the request, the [FirewallHost](#FirewallHost) setting is set to the corresponding address. If the search is not successful, an error is returned.

NOTE: This setting is provided for use by components that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

**FirewallHTTPVersion**: The HTTP version to be used when connecting through a tunneling proxy.When [FirewallType](#FirewallType) is set to a tunneling proxy, this setting dictates which HTTP version is used when connecting.

**FirewallPassword**: Password to be used if authentication is to be used when connecting through the firewall.If [FirewallHost](#FirewallHost) is specified, the [FirewallUser](#FirewallUser) and [FirewallPassword](#FirewallPassword) settings are used to connect and authenticate to the given firewall. If the authentication fails, the component raises an exception.

NOTE: This setting is provided for use by components that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

**FirewallPort**: The TCP port for the FirewallHost;.The [FirewallPort](#FirewallPort) is set automatically when [FirewallType](#FirewallType) is set to a valid value.

NOTE: This configuration setting is provided for use by components that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

**FirewallType**: Determines the type of firewall to connect through.Possible values are as follows:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 | No firewall (default setting). |
| 1 | Connect through a tunneling proxy. [FirewallPort](#FirewallPort) is set to 80. |
| 2 | Connect through a SOCKS4 Proxy. [FirewallPort](#FirewallPort) is set to 1080. |
| 3 | Connect through a SOCKS5 Proxy. [FirewallPort](#FirewallPort) is set to 1080. |
| 10 | Connect through a SOCKS4A Proxy. [FirewallPort](#FirewallPort) is set to 1080. |

NOTE: This setting is provided for use by components that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

**FirewallUser**: A user name if authentication is to be used connecting through a firewall.If the [FirewallHost](#FirewallHost) is specified, the [FirewallUser](#FirewallUser) and [FirewallPassword](#FirewallPassword) settings are used to connect and authenticate to the Firewall. If the authentication fails, the component raises an exception.

NOTE: This setting is provided for use by components that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

**KeepAliveInterval**: The retry interval, in milliseconds, to be used when a TCP keep-alive packet is sent and no response is received.When set, [TCPKeepAlive](#TCPKeepAlive) will automatically be set to True. A TCP keep-alive packet will be sent after a period of inactivity as defined by [KeepAliveTime](#KeepAliveTime). If no acknowledgment is received from the remote host, the keep-alive packet will be sent again. This configuration setting specifies the interval at which the successive keep-alive packets are sent in milliseconds. This system default if this value is not specified here is 1 second.

NOTE: This value is not applicable in macOS.

**KeepAliveTime**: The inactivity time in milliseconds before a TCP keep-alive packet is sent.When set, [TCPKeepAlive](#TCPKeepAlive) will automatically be set to True. By default, the operating system will determine the time a connection is idle before a Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) keep-alive packet is sent. This system default if this value is not specified here is 2 hours. In many cases, a shorter interval is more useful. Set this value to the desired interval in milliseconds.

**Linger**: When set to True, connections are terminated gracefully.This property controls how a connection is closed. The default is True.

In the case that Linger is True (default), two scenarios determine how long the connection will linger. In the first, if [LingerTime](#LingerTime) is 0 (default), the system will attempt to send pending data for a connection until the default IP timeout expires.

In the second scenario, if [LingerTime](#LingerTime) is a positive value, the system will attempt to send pending data until the specified [LingerTime](#LingerTime) is reached. If this attempt fails, then the system will reset the connection.

The default behavior (which is also the default mode for stream sockets) might result in a long delay in closing the connection. Although the component returns control immediately, the system could hold system resources until all pending data are sent (even after your application closes).

Setting this property to False forces an immediate disconnection. If you know that the other side has received all the data you sent (e.g., by a client acknowledgment), setting this property to False might be the appropriate course of action.

**LingerTime**: Time in seconds to have the connection linger. LingerTime is the time, in seconds, the socket connection will linger. This value is 0 by default, which means it will use the default IP timeout.

**LocalHost**: The name of the local host through which connections are initiated or accepted. The [LocalHost](#localhost-property-scp-component) setting contains the name of the local host as obtained by the *gethostname()* system call, or if the user has assigned an IP address, the value of that address.

In multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface), setting LocalHost to the value of an interface will make the component initiate connections (or accept in the case of server components) only through that interface.

If the component is connected, the [LocalHost](#localhost-property-scp-component) setting shows the IP address of the interface through which the connection is made in internet dotted format (aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd). In most cases, this is the address of the local host, except for multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface).

**LocalPort**: The port in the local host where the component binds. This configuration setting must be set before a connection is attempted. It instructs the component to bind to a specific port (or communication endpoint) in the local machine.

Setting this to 0 (default) enables the system to choose a port at random. The chosen port will be shown by [LocalPort](#localport-property-scp-component) after the connection is established.

[LocalPort](#localport-property-scp-component) cannot be changed once a connection is made. Any attempt to set this when a connection is active will generate an error.

This configuration setting is useful when trying to connect to services that require a trusted port on the client side. An example is the remote shell (rsh) service in UNIX systems.

**MaxLineLength**: The maximum amount of data to accumulate when no EOL is found.[MaxLineLength](#MaxLineLength) is the size of an internal buffer, which holds received data while waiting for an EOL string.

If an EOL string is found in the input stream before [MaxLineLength](#MaxLineLength) bytes are received, the DataIn event is fired with the *EOL* parameter set to True, and the buffer is reset.

If no EOL is found, and [MaxLineLength](#MaxLineLength) bytes are accumulated in the buffer, the DataIn event is fired with the *EOL* parameter set to False, and the buffer is reset.

The minimum value for [MaxLineLength](#MaxLineLength) is 256 bytes. The default value is 2048 bytes.

**MaxTransferRate**: The transfer rate limit in bytes per second.This configuration setting can be used to throttle outbound TCP traffic. Set this to the number of bytes to be sent per second. By default, this is not set and there is no limit.

**ProxyExceptionsList**: A semicolon separated list of hosts and IPs to bypass when using a proxy.This configuration setting optionally specifies a semicolon-separated list of hostnames or IP addresses to bypass when a proxy is in use. When requests are made to hosts specified in this property, the proxy will not be used. For instance:

*www.google.com;www.example.com*

**TCPKeepAlive**: Determines whether or not the keep alive socket option is enabled.If set to True, the socket's keep-alive option is enabled and keep-alive packets will be sent periodically to maintain the connection. Set [KeepAliveTime](#KeepAliveTime) and [KeepAliveInterval](#KeepAliveInterval) to configure the timing of the keep-alive packets.

NOTE: This value is not applicable in Java.

**TcpNoDelay**: Whether or not to delay when sending packets. When set to True, the socket will send all data that are ready to send at once. When set to False, the socket will send smaller buffered packets of data at small intervals. This is known as the Nagle algorithm.

By default, this configuration setting is set to False.

**UseIPv6**: Whether to use IPv6.When set to *0* (default), the component will use IPv4 exclusively. When set to *1*, the component will use IPv6 exclusively. To instruct the component to prefer IPv6 addresses, but use IPv4 if IPv6 is not supported on the system, this setting should be set to *2*. The default value is *0*. Possible values are as follows:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 | IPv4 only |
| 1 | IPv6 only |
| 2 | IPv6 with IPv4 fallback |

**UseNTLMv2**: Whether to use NTLM V2.When authenticating with NTLM, this setting specifies whether NTLM V2 is used. By default this value is True and NTLM V2 will be used. Set this to False to use NTLM V1.

### Socket Config Settings

**AbsoluteTimeout**: Determines whether timeouts are inactivity timeouts or absolute timeouts.If [AbsoluteTimeout](#AbsoluteTimeout) is set to True, any method that does not complete within [Timeout](#timeout-property-scp-component) seconds will be aborted. By default, *AbsoluteTimeout* is False, and the timeout is an inactivity timeout.

NOTE: This option is not valid for User Datagram Protocol (UDP) ports.

**FirewallData**: Used to send extra data to the firewall.When the firewall is a tunneling proxy, use this property to send custom (additional) headers to the firewall (e.g., headers for custom authentication schemes).

**InBufferSize**: The size in bytes of the incoming queue of the socket.This is the size of an internal queue in the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)/IP stack. You can increase or decrease its size depending on the amount of data that you will be receiving. In some cases, increasing the value of the *InBufferSize* setting can provide significant improvements in performance.

Some TCP/IP implementations do not support variable buffer sizes. If that is the case, when the component is activated the *InBufferSize* reverts to its defined size. The same happens if you attempt to make it too large or too small.

**OutBufferSize**: The size in bytes of the outgoing queue of the socket.This is the size of an internal queue in the TCP/IP stack. You can increase or decrease its size depending on the amount of data that you will be sending. In some cases, increasing the value of the *OutBufferSize* setting can provide significant improvements in performance.

Some TCP/IP implementations do not support variable buffer sizes. If that is the case, when the component is activated the *OutBufferSize* reverts to its defined size. The same happens if you attempt to make it too large or too small.

### Base Config Settings

**BuildInfo**: Information about the product's build.When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the product's build.

**CodePage**: The system code page used for Unicode to Multibyte translations.The default code page is Unicode UTF-8 (65001).

**LicenseInfo**: Information about the current license.When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the license this instance of a component is using. It will return the following information:

- Product: The product the license is for.
- Product Key: The key the license was generated from.
- License Source: Where the license was found (e.g., RuntimeLicense, License File).
- License Type: The type of license installed (e.g., Royalty Free, Single Server).
- Last Valid Build: The last valid build number for which the license will work.

**MaskSensitiveData**: Whether sensitive data is masked in log messages.In certain circumstances it may be beneficial to mask sensitive data, like passwords, in log messages. Set this to *True* to mask sensitive data. The default is *True*.

**UseFIPSCompliantAPI**: Tells the component whether or not to use FIPS certified APIs.When set to *True*, the component will utilize the underlying operating system's certified APIs. Java editions, regardless of OS, utilize Bouncy Castle Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS), while all other Windows editions make use of Microsoft security libraries.

FIPS mode can be enabled by setting the *UseFIPSCompliantAPI* configuration setting to *True*. This is a static setting that applies to all instances of all components of the toolkit within the process. It is recommended to enable or disable this setting once before the component has been used to establish a connection. Enabling FIPS while an instance of the component is active and connected may result in unexpected behavior.

For more details, please see the [FIPS 140-2 Compliance](https://www.nsoftware.com/kb/articles/fips.rst) article.

NOTE: This setting is applicable only on Windows.

NOTE: Enabling FIPS compliance requires a special license; please contact [sales@nsoftware.com](mailto:sales@nsoftware.com) for details.

**UseInternalSecurityAPI**: Whether or not to use the system security libraries or an internal implementation. When set to *False*, the component will use the system security libraries by default to perform cryptographic functions where applicable.

Setting this configuration setting to *True* tells the component to use the internal implementation instead of using the system security libraries.

 This setting is set to *False* by default on all platforms.
