Subject: Re: Seeking Clarity on Timeout and Option Redispatch Settings
Hello,
a connect timeout is used only *when it is actually needed*, that is
when we send SYN but get no response whatsoever from a backend.
However when the backend server clearly responds with a RST or ICMP
unreachable - which is the case when the is no application running on
the particular port, the error is passed immediately up the stack and
haproxy can handle it without waiting for a timeout.
If you want to test timeout settings, point somewhere where you don't
get a response.
Lukas
