LTM - Pool connection management \ setting a timeout

Good Afternoon!! On the F5, is there a way to set a timeout when waiting for a reply from a node?

 

Below is a screenshot taken from a Stringray Traffic Manager where this setting is configured on a Pool. We would like to configure a 600 sec timeout on the F5.

 

 

Thanks!

 

Ron

    Hi!

     

    With the information given I would look at customizing a tcp profile and increase the default "Idle timeout" from the default of 300 seconds to 600 seconds and then assign it to the server side tcp profile on the virtual server.
