    Done in 15.x stream

    In HOD 15.0.0 release we have provided new keep-alive option that sends telnet commands to host in order to keep the connection live. This keep-alive option is available for all type sessions that use telnet protocol.

    For VT sessions, keep-alive funtionality is provided for telnet and telnet-tls protcols (SSH protocol has no keep-alive feature).

    As provided in dev comments please check the kind for protocol user is using for vt session. If user was using telnet protocol, please enable new keep-alive.
