Hello Need help in understanding the highlighted parameters:
ProxyPass "/example" "http://backend.example.com"; timeout=3600 keepalive=On keepalive parameter - As I understand relates to TCP or socket keep alive probes that are sent to prevent idle connection. [image: image.png] My confusion is : Assuming the backend server takes 4 hrs to process a request and I have 'keepalive on' in Apache httpd with the OS setting to send tcp probes every 2 minutes. Backend server and Apache httpd are sending TCP keep alive packets to indicate the socket connection is not idle. - In this case, would the 'apache httpd' close the connection in 1 hr ( timeout = 3600) because the 'apache httpd' didn't get the http data? Is this timeout 'apache httpd' application timeout ? Appreciate help. Thanks.
