_rexmit_interval_min
Parameter
- Description
-
Specifies the default minimum retransmission time out (RTO) value. The calculated RTO for all TCP connections cannot be lower than this value. See also _rexmit_interval_max Parameter.
- Default
-
200 milliseconds
- Range
-
1 millisecond to 7,200,000 milliseconds
- Dynamic?
-
Yes
- When to Change
-
Do not change the value in a normal network environment.
TCP's RTO calculation should cope with most RTT fluctuations. If, in some very special circumstances, the round-trip time (RTT) for a connection is about 10 seconds, increase this value. If you change this value, you should change the
_rexmit_interval_max
parameter. Change the value of_rexmit_interval_max
to at least eight times the value of_rexmit_interval_min
. The TCP_RTO_MIN socket option can be used to change the initial retransmission timeout on a per-socket basis. - Commitment Level
