Applications use this infrastructure to provide services such as secure file transfer, using the Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP); terminals, using the SSH terminal protocol; remote command execution, through the SSH connection layer protocol; and other services. See “Key Features” for the services available in the ClearPath MCP software.
