SSH Reference Manual

SOCKTCPRXMTCNT
Use this parameter to control the maximum number of continuous retransmissions prior to dropping a TCP connection.
When setting this parameter to a non-zero value the specified parameter is used on socket level.
Parameter Syntax
SOCKTCPRXMTCNT count
Arguments
count
A number representing the maximum number of continuous retransmissions prior to dropping a TCP
connection. A value of 0 means the maximum number of continuous retransmissions prior to dropping a TCP
connection configured in the TCP/IP monitor process is used.
Considerations
• Normally the value configured on TCP/IP monitor process level should be sufficient, i.e. the default value
should be used for parameter SOCKTCPRXMTCNT. 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_RXMTCNT,
i.e. the default value must be used for parameter SOCKTCPRXMTCNT if CIP is involved. See document "HP
NonStop TCP/IPv6 Configuration and Management Manual" for details.
Default
The default is 0.
SOCKTCPTOTRXMTVAL
Use this parameter to control the maximum continuous time spent retransmitting without receiving an acknowledgement
from the other endpoint. When setting this parameter to a non-zero value the specified parameter is used on socket level.
Parameter Syntax
SOCKTCPTOTRXMTVAL time
Arguments
time
A number representing the maximum time for TCP retransmission timeout. A value of 0 means the maximum
continuous time spent retransmitting without receiving an acknowledgement from the other endpoint configured
in the TCP/IP monitor process is used.
Considerations
• Normally the value configured on TCP/IP monitor process level should be sufficient, i.e. the default value
should be used for parameter SOCKTCPTOTRXMTVAL. 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_TOTRXMTVAL, i.e. the default value must be used for parameter SOCKTCPTOTRXMTVAL if CIP is
involved. See document "HP NonStop TCP/IPv6 Configuration and Management Manual" for details.
Default
The default is 0.
