KeepAlive Property  
 

Set or return if keep-alive packets are sent to connected clients.

Syntax

object.KeepAlive [= { True | False } ]

Remarks

Setting the KeepAlive property to a value of True indicates that packets are to be sent to connected clients when no data is being exchanged to keep the connection active.

The default interval at which these packets are sent is typically two hours and cannot be modified using the control. Consult the Windows system administration documentation for information on how to change the default keep-alive interval.
