Thanks hicksd8, I have checked the streams and it appears to be ok

Code:

# crash
dumpfile = /dev/mem, namelist = /stand/unix, outfile = stdout
Engine: 0 of 4  Procslot: 80  Lwpslot: 0  crash
> strstat
ITEM                  INUSE      TOTAL       FAIL
streams                 215     155432          0

I don't see any fails.

Thank you JGT,
I do not see a keep alive setting in terminal emulation software, but since the disconnect can happen at any time would this be the keep alive? I have seen the same user with an issue leave for lunch for 30 minutes and the session stay up. I have also seen the same user loose connection in the middle of typing on the computer.
I have looked into changing ssh but the proprietary database application for Service tickets does not open when connecting to the ssh session it drops the user into the command prompt and not the application, so I have not been able to connect using ssh for the application.
