Keep-Alive

O cabeçalho Keep-Alive permite que o remetente indique como a conexão deve ser usada, para definir um tempo limite e um máximo de requisições.

O Connection cabeçalho precisa ser definido como "keep-alive" para isso funcionar , Connection e Keep-Alive são ignorados em conexões HTTP/2; Gerenciamento de conexões são feitos por outros mecanismos.

Tipo de cabeçalho General header

parâmetros
Uma vírgula separa a lista de parâmetros, Cada consiste de um identificador e um valor separado pelo sinal de igualdade ('='). São possíveis os seguintes identificadores:
  • timeout: indicando a quantidade mínima de tempo que uma conexão deve ser mantida aberta (em segundos). Observe que os tempos limite maiores que o tempo limite do TCP podem ser ignorados se nenhuma mensagem TCP keep-alive estiver definida na camada de transporte.
  • max: indicando o número máximo de pedidos que podem ser enviados nesta conexão antes de fechá-lo. Menor que 0, este valor será ignorado por conexões non-pipelined, pois outra requisição será enviada na próxima resposta. Um HTTP pipeline pode usar isso para limitar o pipelining.
