Tips on entering Idle for Dynamic Short Hold %:
■
For interactive connections (e.g.
➤➤
telnet ), specify a high value (e.g.
80...90) to avoid clearing connections during short phases without data
exchange.
■
For Internet connections (e.g. WWW, http, etc.), specify a medium to high
value (e.g. 50...80) to avoid clearing connections while waiting.
■
For data connections (e.g.
➤➤
ftp ), specify a low value (e.g. 10...40) to
avoid the unnecessary continuation of a connection after data has been
transferred.
