Notes:
If the keep alive time expires, the user timeout is expired, and there are probes in
flight, the connection will be reset. For this reason, it is recommended that if keep alive
is used in conjunction with the user timeout, the keep alive timeouts be larger than the
user timeout. If it is smaller, what will typically be seen is that the initial probe will be
sent, then at the interval where the next probe would normally be sent, the connection
will be reset, with no additional probes sent. Also note that in these cases: if the keep
