Implement A Keepalive Mechanism
-------------------------------
Key: NET-258
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NET-258
Project: Commons Net
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 2.0
Reporter: Rory Winston
Assignee: Rory Winston
For routers/firewalls that terminate idle connections, a separate heartbeat
mechanism may need to be implemented to keep the control connection active.
Some potential issues:
* Synchronization between a heartbeat write and a __getReply() on an active
control connection command;
* Should use the NOOP command as a heartbeat signal;
* Make the timeout configurable;
* Default SocketImpl::setKeepAlive() wont do here.
