# HttpConnectTimeout

The maximum amount of time that the connector waits for an HTTP server to respond when establishing a connection.

The value of this parameter is a time duration. Specify a value using one or more of the following units:

         years      y
         months     m
         weeks      w
         days       d
         hours      h
         minutes    n
         seconds    s

Note that months abbreviates to m, minutes to n. If you want to specify the value in seconds, units are not required.

         1minute 3seconds
         1n 3s
         63s
         63
