Configuring keepalive parameters
A client sends keepalive packets to the server periodically, and the server sends responses back to prove
its existence. If a server receives no keepalive packets from a client within a specific period (which equals
the product of the keepalive interval and the maximum number of transmission attempts), the server
removes information about the client and logs off the client.
You can set the interval at which a client sends keepalive packets and the maximum number of
transmission attempts. After a client registers with the server, the server sends these settings to the client
through its response packet.
