   Default: 3. Increase this value to 6 if telnet drops connections during discovery.

   telnet.read.timeout_secs

   Specifies the maximum time interval to wait, to gather the results after issuing a command.

   Default: 2. Increase this value to 4 if telnet drops connections during discovery.

   telnet.read.byte_to_byte_delay_secs

   Specifies the maximum time interval to wait for the next byte while reading the results. This value is used only if the Look for Prompts option is not selected in the Access Profile.

   Default: 900. Increase this value to 1500 if telnet drops connections during discovery.
