Hi everyone,   Just want to ask if there is a prod. impact if I change default value of CLOSE and FIN into a higher value.   Thanks.

Do you mind if I ask why? Also please note there's no such thing as FIN_WAIT...do you mean TIME_WAIT?

FIN_WAIT and TIME_WAIT are two different things, though they are similar. FIN_WAIT happens when an endpoint initiates closing the connection with a FIN. TIME_WAIT is the time to wait after the connection has been closed.
