Parameter
icm/HTTP/client/keep_alive_timeout
Short text
Keep-alive timeout for inactive client connections
Parameter Description
This parameter relates to the “keep-alive feature” of HTTP 1.1. That is, if a new HTTP request work process is received from the work process within this period of time, the ICM attempts to reuse an existing connection. If, for an existing connection, there is no further communication within the specified time period, the ICM terminates the connection. This avoids having to keep establishing and terminating costly network connections.
After the timeout interval has expired, the user context in the work process is not closed. The user context is closed after the time interval specified in the profile parameter rdisp/plugin_auto_logout. If rdisp/plugin_auto_logout = 0 is set, the context in the work process is not deleted at all.
A parameter value of -1 deactivates the timeout altogether. In this case the connection is never closed by the ICM.
