Time-out values in the CommDb bearer table

There are three time-out values, which are set in the CommDb bearer table:

Name	Description
LAST_SESSION_CLOSED_TIMEOUT	This time-out is used if there are no ESock RConnection objects and no sockets for the interface.
LAST_SOCKET_CLOSED_TIMEOUT	This time-out used if there are RConnection objects, but no sockets for the interface.
LAST_SOCKET_ACTIVITY_TIMEOUT	This time-out used if there are any sockets for the interface.

The NIFMAN configuration plug-in that calls the daemon provides progress notifications for a range of generic events. These are:

Progress type	Description
