tcp_keepalive_intvl (integer; default: 75; since Linux 2.4)
The number of seconds between TCP keep-alive probes.
tcp_keepalive_probes (integer; default: 9; since Linux 2.2)
The maximum number of TCP keep-alive probes to send before giving up and killing the connection if no
response is obtained from the other end.
tcp_keepalive_time (integer; default: 7200; since Linux 2.2)
The number of seconds a connection needs to be idle before TCP begins sending out keep-alive probes. Keep-
alives are sent only when the SO_KEEPALIVE socket option is enabled. The default value is 7200 seconds (2
hours). An idle connection is terminated after approximately an additional 11 minutes (9 probes an interval
of 75 seconds apart) when keep-alive is enabled.
