Synopsis: tcp connections linger too long in the timed wait state State-Changed-From-To: open->closed State-Changed-By: jlemon State-Changed-When: Thu Dec 30 09:29:51 PST 1999 State-Changed-Why: This is not a bug - the TCP specification requires the side that did an active close to linger in the TIME_WAIT state for 2*MSL. MSL is by convention set to 30 sec. If you want to circumvent the spec, you can do so by changing the TCPTV_MSL definition. Note that in -current, this is now a sysctl: net.inet.tcp.msl -- Jonathan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
