FAQ
Does rabbit server have a default time-out for connections that has to
be overridden?

i.e. Our clients are opening connections for x days (persistant connections
into rabbit), and connections are timing out on our client applications
within a few minutes.

    Whenever this question has come up in the past it turns out that some
    piece of networking hardware is causing the problem.

    You may find that turning on AMQP heartbeats in your clients creates
    enough network traffic to fool your infrastructure...

    Hi Simon,


    Would you please help me understand how to turn on heartbeats?


    Should I turn it on in the client? My code looks like below.


    But, after 60 seconds, rabbitmq closes the connection saying heartbeat
    timeout.


    parameters pika.ConnectionParameters(host=RABBITMQ_HOSTNAME,heartbeat_interval`,credentials=pika.PlainCredentials(RABBITMQ_USERNAME,RABBITMQ_PASSWORD))
    connection = pika.SelectConnection(parameters,on_connected)


    Thanks
    Nishanth
