TCP SYN timer

Can anybody please tell me how I can figure out on a solaris server how long it would take a TCP SYN request to timeout before it gets a SYN_ACK back?

Thanks,

you can try something like this :
Code:
/usr/sbin/ndd -get /dev/tcp tcp_ip_abort_interval
/usr/sbin/ndd -get /dev/tcp tcp_ip_abort_cinterval

although I'm not sure if this is really the parameters you want as there are many tunnable TCP parameters and I'm not an expert Smilie
You can also try netstat. I think it has options to list protocol specific options, something like :
Code:
netstat -s -P tcp

I hope this helps you a bit

Thanks for the help. I think this is good information even though, I don't think I get what I need. because when I do the ndd get, one is 600000 and the other one is 60000. I think it's a long time. I will use your info to see if I get more out of it.

Thanks so much again,

These are milliseconds. Five minutes and one minute are hardly a long time for these values.
