# SFTP Technical Details for Network Administrators

## File storage

There is no size limit for SFTP folder content.

SFTP servers are intended for file delivery, not permanent data storage. Files are subject to removal after 30 days.

## Allow lists

#### For connections initiated by organizations into Technolutions:

If outbound traffic from an organization is being restricted, allow the following IP addresses:

- United States / Global (ft.technolutions.net)**:** `34.200.21.44, 44.223.214.145`
- Canada (ft.ca-central-1.technolutions.net): `35.182.71.83, 15.222.222.243`
- Europe (ft.eu-west-1.technolutions.net): `34.248.134.148, 34.251.248.142`
- Asia Pacific (ft.ap-northeast-1.technolutions.net): `18.179.70.72, 3.113.193.167`

#### For connections that are initiated by Technolutions:

If files are being transferred from Slate to external servers, the connections are initiated from the IP addresses listed in the [Outbound Networks](/v1/docs/outbound-networks) article.

## Technolutions SFTP site

The Technolutions SFTP hostname or site is **ft.technolutions.net**.

## Public key fingerprint

Should the SFTP client need to trust a specific server, the Slate SFTP server public key fingerprint is:

```plainText
ssh-rsa 2048 35:7a:60:48:cf:4f:bc:d1:f1:4e:92:dc:ea:02:18:3b
```

## Command line SFTP

If the institution is connecting with a command-line SFTP program that takes the connection settings in the form `username@server`, using a value such as `sftp@slate-demo.technolutions.net@ft.technolutions.net` may not work correctly.

In such cases, replace the first `@` symbol with an equals `=` symbol, making the resulting setting `sftp=slate-demo.technolutions.net@ft.technolutions.net`.
