<parameter name="KeepAliveTimeout" value=" 0

... | 32767"/>

Default setting:

Default value is 15 seconds.

Usage notes:

The KeepAliveTimeout keyword determines the number of seconds before the keepalive probes are sent as well as duration between probes. The number of seconds before probes are sent combined with the duration between probes provides an approximate maximum wait time of KeepAliveTimeout duration.

When the KeepAliveTimeout keyword is set to 0, the keepalive setting that is set in the operating system takes effect.

This keyword is only supported for TCP/IP protocol.

The KeepAliveTimeout keyword is available for use with embedded SQL application.
