I would hazard a guess that if it was possible it would be a setting
like -1. (you'd never match a negative count)

But, its not the best idea to do something like it which is why they
would tell you its not possible to do so(not that I'm saying it is). If
you did you'd end up filling up the connections table as sessions would
never end, then youd get no more sessions through your firewall.

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.
