We have default tcp timeout set on Checkpoint firewall to 1 hr. Now problem which we are facing is that our connection after 1 hr of inactivity still persist (hanging login sessions still there) between the client and pc(example our ssh sessions)

we are using NG55 AI W

my question is


1) When idle timeout is reached for tcp , is the connection removed from the connection table only or is reset also issued to the client and server

2) any idea how to avoid this issue


any help is highly appreciated
