set timeout for connections to devices

[previousqna]

Hi,

I have an emulated ALU-SR device I am trying to connect to. I know it is pretty slow as it is an emulated device (and the resources on the host machine arent exactly brilliant).

On connect from WebUI I get the following error:

Failed to connect to device ALU-10: connection refused: ned_connect_cli The kexTimeout (20000 ms) expired.

where could I set kexTimeout to a higher value? (I assume kexTimeout is a value relevant to NSO and defines how long to wait inbetween the various connection messages going back and forth between device and NSO!?)

I looked in ncs.conf but that seems to be the wrong place.

t didnt even take delving as deep as ncs.conf

The value can be set for each device in the Web-UI. Default seems to be 20000ms(=20s). New value is to be entered in seconds. See attached image:
