nl

No linger. Allows TCP sockets to be closed without delay and not enter TIMED_WAIT state.

USYS$TCP_PARAMS {=} nl

Use

This setting is best used in the assignment file of the Uniface Router.

Description

If there is a high volume of messaging, many TCP sockets may end up in the TIMED_WAIT state. This can occur when using web applications to call into Uniface or when sending asynchronous messages. Eventually the system may run out of sockets and all new TCP communication will stop until more sockets become available. In this case, it is useful to set the nl option.
