NETCONF Keep-alive in NSO (Particularly in CFS-RFS)

[ClayArmstrong]

Having a few hiccups with long lived connections within a Docker Swarm, particularly with the NETCONF connection between CFS-RFS

It occurs to me any NAT, or Firewall or mesh between the two points, if presented with an "idle" connection may close it.  Is there any keep-alive behaviour with NSO's default ssh client/netconf transport?

Thanks!

Hi Clay,

You have a setting called ssh-keep-alive (and another called ned-keep-alive). This can be set either on the individual node or under the device or under devices global-settings to apply to all devices. Hopefully that does what you want!

Definitely going to give that a try, but looking at the default values in the yang, these were already set. I think.
