 522  523  This parameter is primarily intended to be used in the per-user
 523  524  \fBssh_config\fR, \fB~/.ssh/config\fR. While this parameter can also be used in
 524  525  the system wide \fB/etc/ssh/ssh_config\fR file, it is generally useless as the
 525  526  capabilities of the \fBssh\fR(1) client on that host should match that file.

 535  536  Specifies whether the system should send TCP keepalive messages to the other
 536  537  side. If they are sent, death of the connection or crash of one of the machines
 537  538  is properly noticed. However, this means that connections die if the route is
 538  539  down temporarily, which can be a source of annoyance.
 539  540  .sp
 540  541  The default is \fByes\fR (to send keepalives), which means the client notices
 541  542  if the network goes down or the remote host dies. This is important in scripts,
