Re: tcp_keepalive_interval
waits for an idle connection with no unacknowledged data before sending
keepalive packets. The default is 2 hours.

SolutionIf you are on 11.00 do:-
ndd -h tcp_keepalive_interval
The default of 2 hours may be too long depending on your circumstances. Do you have lots of network connections that get lost (clients crashing and the like)?
If you reduce the interval then you may cause a slight increase in network traffic.

Re: tcp_keepalive_interval
Yes, 2 hours is too long to keep alive idle TCP connections. Weve set ours down to a much more reasonable 15 minutes, but you should only do so if your suffering from lots of open TCP sockets waiting to finish - ie. do a netstat -a|grep tcp|grep FIN

Re: tcp_keepalive_interval
The two hour time limit should be fine. The connected machines, will stay connected and you won't know the difference. Then after the two hours, your machine will start polling the other to see if it is still there. Say the other machine crashes, no ACK will be sent back and the systems will disconnect. Otherwise it will just keep polling and wait for the response.
