The default is 30 seconds. Increase this time if banners are incomplete. For example, we have to increase the timeout when downloading all the SSL certs from the Internet, because some sites take that long to deliver all the certs in the chain. However, beware that when this is set to a large value, it'll consume a lot of memory on fast scans. While the code may handle millions of open TCP connections, you may not have enough memory for that. ## CONFIGURATION FILE FORMAT Loading Loading
