I understand that. I will experiment with NOOP cause the documentation of
our server says it accepts keep alive NOOP commands. What would be the best
way to send the NOOP? Can I do that from the OnWork method every x minutes
(this should not mess with the data channel stream, should it?) or is there
some other way to so it properly?
