NetBrain currently applies a fixed, non-configurable timeout of 3600 seconds to API calls made through the API Server Manager, unlike CLI and SNMP access, which both support configurable timeout values in domain management settings. When a device or API server becomes unreachable, calls held open for the full default duration can consume the limited pool of available worker threads, causing delays or failures for unrelated API requests. This enhancement would add a configurable timeout setting for API calls, consistent with the existing CLI and SNMP timeout controls, allowing administrators to set a shorter or standardized value appropriate to their environment. Customers would benefit from improved resilience and more predictable API performance when individual devices or servers become unresponsive.
