Module om_tcp - TCP idle connection question

<Output out>
Module om_tcp
Host 10.xx.xx.10
Port 10514
Exec to_json();
</Output>

<Route 1>
Path eventlog,dnslog => out
</Route>

Hi There,

When using the “om_tcp” ouput module, is there a tcp timeout related to this? Or does nxlog open a connection and let it sit idle until data is sent?

Many thanks

Craig
