Set or return if keep-alive packets are sent on a connected
socket.
Syntax
object.KeepAlive [= { True | False }]
Remarks
Setting the KeepAlive property to a value of true
indicates that packets are to be sent to the remote system when no
data is being exchanged to keep the connection active. This
property can only be set for sockets that were created with the
Protocol property set to a value of swProtocolTcp.
The default interval at which these packets are sent is
typically two hours and cannot be modified using the control.
Consult the Windows system administration documentation for
information on how to change the default keep-alive interval.
