ACE: idle timeout

[gavin han]

Hi,

I've configured parameter-map with "set inactivity timeout 0" but the http session is still timing out.

I applied that "set inactivity timeout 0" parameter map to the policy-map than applied that policy map service policy to the interface but http sessions are still timing out after 5 minutes. why is that? is there any way to avoid these timeouts?

Hi,

If the policy is applied correctly then it should not clear the connections as inactivity value of 0 tells ACE not to time out idle connections.

But   if you see fin, fin-ack or RST  between client and server then that entry will be removed inspite of the fact that idle timeout is configured as 0.

You can test this.
