SolarPutty times out with no Internet connectivity

j1mat

Was doing some maintenance the other night and logged into devices using SolarPutty and during a planned Internet outage SolarPutty stopped responding after about 30 minutes not exactly sure on the time. I couldn't get the application to come back up until Internet connectivity was restored. Is there a timeout for connectivity?

@j1mat This is odd behavior. The assumption would be that when the SSH connection is dropped, it should disconnect immediately. If this did not happen, the assumption is that the application believes it was still connected.

We can try and see if we can replicate similar behavior by dropping the SSH connection using third party application. If the SolarPutty application itself is frozen, this is a bit concerning.
