CDN timeouts
The timeouts set for the servers proxied by the Gcore Edge Network vary from the default values of nginx. The following timeouts are currently in use:
| Directive | Definition | Value |
| proxy_read_timeout | The time limit for receiving a partial response from a proxied server. If no response is received within this time, the connection will be closed. |
30s |
| proxy_connect_timeout | The time limit for establishing a connection with a proxied server. | 5s |
| proxy_send_timeout | The time limit for sending a request to a proxied server. If no response is received within this time, the connection will be closed. |
30s |
| client_header_timeout | The time limit for a proxy server to read a client request header. If the entire header is not received within this time, the client will receive a 408 (request timeout) error. |
10s |
| client_body_timeout | The time limit for a proxy server to read a client request body. If no data is sent within this time, the client will receive a 408 (Request Time-out) error. |
30s |
| resolver_timeout | The time limit for resolving a name. | 5s |
| ssl_session_timeout | The duration for which the client can reuse session parameters. | 2h |
| http2_idle_timeout | The inactivity period after which the connection will be closed. | 15s |
The timeouts can be changed via technical support if you have an enterprise plan.
