Say I'm on computer A and I use SSH to get a console on computer B. Then through this SSH console I copy files from computer B to computer C.
ME (Computer A)
|
| (ssh to)
Computer B ----------> Computer C
(copy files to)
What network traffic comes over the wire to me and my console and what traffic only moves between computer B and computer C? Is my assumption that the copied files' data only moves between B & C and not A & B?
not a question, and yes, you'll probably want to redirect all output to of the copy/xcopy operations with
>/dev/null
to minimize every bit of bandwidth from console output to your terminal. – Marcel – 2013-04-09T16:42:46.683
