Description

The interval between the last data packet sent (simple ACKs are not considered data) and the first keepalive probe; after the connection is marked with keep-alive, this counter is not used any further. The default, 0, means that the operating system defaults are used. This only has an effect if keep-alive is enabled. The functionality may not be available on all platforms.

Input usage

input(type="imrelp" port="2514" keepAlive="on" keepAlive.time="600")
