SSH target options

-address=<string> - An optional valid network address for the target to connect to. You cannot use an address alongside host sources.
-default-client-port=<string> - The default client port on the target.
-default-port=<string> - The default port on the target. If you do not specify a default port, Boundary uses port 22.
-egress-worker-filter=<string> - A Boolean expression that filters which egress workers can process sessions for the target.
-enable-session-recording=<string> - A Boolean expression you can use to enable session recording for the target.
-ingress-worker-filter=<string> - A Boolean expression that filters which ingress workers can process sessions for the target.
-session-connection-limit=<string> - The maximum number of connections allowed for a session. A value of -1 means the connections are unlimited.
-session-max-seconds=<string> - The maximum lifetime of the session, including all connections. You can specify an integer number of seconds or a duration string.
-storage-bucket-id=<string> - The public ID of the storage bucket to associate with the target.
-with-alias-authorize-session-host-id=<string> - The host ID that an alias uses to authorize sessions for the target.
