SSH Reference Manual
SOCKTCPMINRXMT 
Use this parameter to control the minimum time for TCP retransmission timeout. When setting this parameter to a non-
zero value the specified parameter is used on socket level. 
Parameter Syntax 
SOCKTCPMINRXMT time 
Arguments 
 time 
A number representing the minimum time for TCP retransmission timeout. A value of 0 means the minimum 
time for TCP retransmission timeout configured in the TCP/IP monitor process is used. 
Considerations 
•  Normally the value configured on TCP/IP monitor process level (TCP-MIN-REXMIT-TIMEOUT) should be 
sufficient, i.e. the default value should be used for parameter SOCKTCPMINRXMT. See document "HP 
NonStop TCP/IPv6 Configuration and Management Manual" for details. 
•  The Cluster I/O Protocols (CIP) subsystem does not support the corresponding socket option TCP_MINRXMT, 
i.e. the default value must be used for parameter SOCKTCPMINRXMT if CIP is involved. See document "HP 
NonStop TCP/IPv6 Configuration and Management Manual" for details. 
Default 
The default is 0. 
SOCKTCPMAXRXMT 
Use this parameter to control the maximum time for TCP retransmission timeout. When setting this parameter to a non-
zero value the specified parameter is used on socket level. 
Parameter Syntax 
SOCKTCPMAXRXMT time 
Arguments 
 time 
A number representing the maximum time for TCP retransmission timeout. A value of 0 means the maximum 
time for TCP retransmission timeout configured in the TCP/IP monitor process is used. 
Considerations 
•  Normally the value configured on TCP/IP monitor process level (TCP-MAX-REXMIT-TIMEOUT) should be 
sufficient, i.e. the default value should be used for parameter SOCKTCPMAXRXMT. See document "HP 
NonStop TCP/IPv6 Configuration and Management Manual" for details. 
•  The Cluster I/O Protocols (CIP) subsystem does not support the corresponding socket option 
TCP_MAXRXMT, i.e. the default value must be used for parameter SOCKTCPMAXRXMT if CIP is involved. 
See document "HP NonStop TCP/IPv6 Configuration and Management Manual" for details. 
Default 
The default is 0.
