  • the default port of 32150: See http object, locate port:32150
  • if required adjust the keepaliveSecs setting - if there was no telegram to be sent upstream to the CV this triggers an empty message to force the reverse proxy to keep the session alive * the debug output in stdout: set the level in loglevel: 4- Debug, 3-Info, 2-Warning, 1-Error only; defaults to Warning=2
