this is rfc on proposed fix to sol keepalives and related findings.

the current code contains comment that payload processor reboot may cause unwanted termination.
right now it does not tear down the session as long as there is no data to send.
when there are no commands pending then no command may fail and the session will persist.
the getdeviceid method is prone to hanging around even after interfering deactivation.
should not the default session live detection method be changed to activation (and quit after 2nd successful) or is there better method of detecting activity?

the retry and timeout are values used at the lanplus session command level
the solretry and soltime values are used for the live check while there is no valid command pending.

also the retry and timeout defaults but that's probably an enhancement.
keep it fixed or get the remote parameters using the info and have the defaults mimic the remote defaults?

also does anyone see why is there timeout = 1 setting?

and using the
