Line Commands

keepalive

Enables a per-connection TCP keepalive feature. After the configured number of

seconds, the connection will send a gratuitous ACK to the network peer, thus either

ensuring the connection stays active OR causing a dropped connection condition to be
recognized.
This parameter needs to be used in conjunction with server parameter,

monitor-connection-every. The interval determines how long the IOLAN will wait
during inactivity before "testing" the connection. It should be noted that if a network

connection is accidentally dropped, it can take as long as the specified interval before

anyone can reconnect to the serial port.
