You could enable TCP keep alive. Each OS has it's own way of doing it. See:

Subject: [FW-1] Turn off TCP Session timeout for a service?


We have an app server connecting to a MySQL DB server in a different subnet. The TCP Session timeout keeps cutting off the app server from the DB server. We have reasons to put these 2 systems in different subnets, I won't bore you with those details.

Is there a way to set the TCP Session timeout for this service to "infinite"? I.e., no timeout? Checkpoint tech support says no, that setting the timeout to Zero is not saying "no timeout" for this service, and the max number of seconds I can set in the service seems to be 9999.

NGX R62 on a Solaris system.  TIA.
