Hi,

Trying to understand if whatch-timeout is aplicable intercept mode and/or whatch mode.

One book says it should be used for watch mode and other book uses it for intercept mode.

What do you think?

==================
quoted
If Intercept is configured to run in watch mode, configure the amount of time it will wait for a watched connection to an established state before terminating the connection. Use this command to do so:

ip tcp intercept watch-timeout <seconds>

Cisco Network Security Little Black Book
===================

This book shows an example where whatch-timeou is configured for intercept mode:

===================
quoted
ip tcp intercept watch-timeout 20
!Sets the time in seconds (20) for a partially opened connection to complete
!the connection sequence before sending a reset command to the local host.
