HTTP Keep-Alive
HTTP Keep-Alive is a mechanism for processing multiple HTTP requests and responses over a single TCP connection in HTTP communication.
Between a Device and the Soracom Funk Entry Point
Funk's HTTP entry point supports HTTP Keep-Alive. If the device uses HTTP/1.1, HTTP Keep-Alive is enabled by default with a timeout of 65 seconds. If you prefer not to use HTTP Keep-Alive, you can disable it in one of two ways:
- Set the
Connection: closeheader when the device sends an HTTP request. - Close the TCP connection immediately after receiving the response.
The default timeout value may change without notice.
