Re: Changing TCP socket connection timeout parameters HP-UX10.20

Hi,

The TCP/IP keepalive parameter on HP-UX 10.20 is tcp_keepstop. This will timeout your connection if there is no network activity for the duration.

To check your current setting:

# /usr/contrib/bin/nettune -l tcp_keepstop

To change to 900 seconds::

# nettune -s tcp_keepstop 900

Hope this helps. Regards.
