RE: Client Access or iSeriesAccess TN5250 disconnecting (Jim Franz)

["Jon Paris" <Jon.Paris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

 >> Now, using Mochasoft TN5250, I can set a "keep alive" option, and every
15 seconds, it sends some data to keep the TCP/IP connection alive. But, I
cannot seem to find a similar option wth ClientAccess or iSeriesAccess.

I was discussing this exact issue with some of the IBNMers at COMMON last
week Mark.  In my case I'm certain that it is a firewall issue.  Like you I
have no problem with Mocha, and I suspect that is because the client side is
initiating the keep-alive.  Apparently with CA this is handled from the 400
end - and of course will not get through the firewall because it was not
initiated from inside the wall.

If I hear back from them I'll post the response here.
