Apr 22, 2025About F5 idle timeout and keep-alive
Hello experts,
We recently had a service where the connection would be interrupted before the idle timeout ended.
Idle timeout is set to 5 minutes but the connection cuts out after about 1 minute
After testing, everything is fine after bypassing F5.
---
Then we set the TCP Keep Alive Interval and it works fine...
Why is this happening...?

Was the connection being closed by Client, Server, or F5?

Hi Seattle2k ,
According to the report, it's F5 that closes the connection.
