Sorry, I should have been more clear.
I was talking about the "keepidle" and "keepinvtl" timers, which determine
the intervals between keepalives. These timers are settable system-wide
using the net.inet.tcp.{keepidle,keepintvl} sysctl options. I was suggesting
causing them to be tunable on a per-socket basis like TGV Multinet. This
might be useful for servers with different keepalive requirements.

Probably in tcp(4).
