the GFW can block SSH connection based on data flow rate?

[braindevices]

I just found out the GFW will block IP for 1 hour, if download large file through ssh. This is crazy. So now I cannot obtain business data through ssh... Any data flow below 50KB/s is OK ...
Test inside China Telecomm, no such feature in China unicom.
Any one know any solution for this?

Kind of off-topic, but I prefer not closing this immediately.

And, IMO, no "actual" solution for this.
You'll probably have to make SSH traffic through VPN or something or just leave "中国奠信" alone

Maybe a "question" label is better.

It's been obersved for a long time that GFW does detect and block SSH connections.

You can try using some encrypted proxying techniques in front of your SSH server (e.g. VPN as @SerCom-KC mentions).

Or if you can control your SSH server, there is a fork of OpenSSH server with an obfuscated protocol, and putty has built-in clilent support for it. Try changing your server port to some value other than 22 and use the obfuscated server, though it is not guaranteed to work...

I thought that was for hosts-related questions only lol

@SerCom-KC thanks a lot for keeping this topic open. @beyondgfw I am going to try the obfuscated protocol, let's see what will happen.

Close for now. Let me know if you have any reasons to keep this open
