SENA Parani-MSP1000 - Manual (Page 26)

To use the TCP “keep-alive” feature with the Parani-MSP1000, the users should configure three
parameters as follows:
 TCP keep-alive time:
This represents the time interval between the last data transmission and keep-alive packet
submissions by the Parani-MSP1000. These “keep-alive” messages are sent to the remote host
to confirm that the session is still open. The default time value is 15 sec.
 TCP “keep-alive” probes:
This represents how many “keep-alive” probes will be sent to the remote host, until it decides that
the connection is dead. Multiplied with the “TCP ‘keep-alive’ intervals”, this gives the time that a
link is forced to close after a “keep-alive” packet has been sent for the first time. The default is 3
times
 TCP keep-alive intervals:
This represents the waiting period until a “keep-alive” packet is retransmitted. The default value is
5 seconds.
By default, the Parani-MSP1000 will send the keep-alive packets 3 times with 5 seconds interval after
15 seconds have elapsed since the time when there’s no data transmitted back and forth.
