Lotus Domino Administrator 8 Help - Changing the TCP/IP connection-time-out interval

NETWORK CONFIGURATION

Changing the TCP/IP connection-time-out interval
You might want to increase the number of seconds that IBM® Lotus® Domino™ waits before terminating a connection attempt. For example, increasing the time-out interval is often necessary on a server that dials up other Domino servers. The default time-out interval is 5 seconds.

1. From the Domino Administrator or Web Administrator, click the server for which you want to change the time-out interval.

2. Click the Configuration tab.

3. Do one of these:

From the Domino Administrator's Tools pane, choose Server - Setup Ports.
From the Web Administrator's Port tool, choose Setup.

4. Select the TCP/IP port.

5. Click "TCPIP Options," and enter a number.

Note

Unless the connection is over a dial-on-demand ISDN modem, remote bridge, or router, it is best to enter a number no greater than 10, as the IBM® Lotus® Notes® client or Domino server won't retry the connection until the timer has expired.

6. Click OK.
