The FREQUENCY parameter specifies the seconds to wait after data has been sent or received on a connection before beginning keepalive detection. Choosing a high number means that the connections are checked less often and the resulting network traffic is reduced. Choosing a low frequency means that the connections are checked more frequently and connections are freed more rapidly.

The value is an integer in the range 1–65 535.

This parameter is required. The default is 60.
