Optionally, set a different Keep Alive Timeout period.
You can set the amount of time in seconds that this DeviceMaster waits until it closes this connection and
frees all the ports associated with it.
This value may be set to less than 5 seconds, however the DeviceMaster may not operate at any value less than 5.
A recommended value to begin experimentation with is 10.
Optionally, set the TCP Timeout Multiplier value.
This value should not be modified unless the network connection to the DeviceMaster is very slow, such as, if a
satellite uplink connection is involved. It is recommended that a value over 3 never be used.
