When Rumba is connected to a mainframe over a network via TCP/IP, TCP Keepalive feature can be used to determine if the connection is still active. Enable this feature if you want the host connection to be monitored for connection issues. This feature can be enabled by executing the following steps:

Click on Connection > Configure > TN3270Advanced tab. Select “Send KeepAlive” option. Two options are provided for this feature:

System

Enables TCP/IP connection monitoring. This depends on host generated Keep Alive packets.

 

Send NOP

Enables Rumba to transmit NOP packets on an idle connection to maintain connectivity and detect connection failures. Use the Interval field to specify the interval, in seconds, at which to send the packet.

Is there a way to set a Send NOP using the Rumba v10 version of WdMfDsp.Ocx AxObjectXMFDisplaycontrol?
We have a .NET Windows form application that connects a user base to a 3270 Mainframe session. Our objective is to extend the six-minute timeout threshold set by our the host session.

While the Rumba v10 client has extended configuration settings for Send NOP Interval under the Keep Alive Connection, the AxObjectXMFDisplay1 control Active properties for the WdMfDsp.Ocx (file version 10.1.853.1) does not expose this property.
