Directions for protocol.timeout

jmdiazlr 9 years ago

Could any body give advise about configuring [protocol].timeout values ? some rules of thumb?

I have a very bad cell phone in my test, with many "connectivity changed" messages (3-5 between each "position updated" message). The frequency of update 60s, this using wifi o gprs, no difference.

I suppose this is creating many idle connections for too much time... so I would like to set protocol.timeout to release connection sooner.

Thanks.

Usually timeout should be slightly higher that frequency of reporting. For example, if your device reports every 5 minutes, you can set timeout to 6 minutes.
