keepalive = number — [global]

Synopsis

Allowable values: number of seconds

Default: 300

Sets the number of seconds between checks for a crashed client. The value of 0 causes no checks to be performed. Setting keepalive = 3600 will turn on checks every hour. A value of 600 (every 10 minutes) is recommended if you want more frequent checks. See also socket options for another approach.
