# Handshake Timeout

The amount of time (in seconds) that the EMS server waits for an SSL connection to complete.

The value specified may be any positive integer. The default value is 3 seconds.

When the timeout is reached, the EMS server closes the SSL connection and continues servicing other clients.

## Classic Configuration

The timeout is set using the handshake_timeout property in the tibemsd.conf file:

    handshake_timeout = seconds

## Administration

This property cannot be set using the administration tool.
