<div>Well, let me suggest you to reconsider your approach. There’s a java library that uses ‘pure java sockets’ (java-esl), it’s based on netty (an implementation of the Java New IO (java.nio) API), and works like a charm. You can use this client library to
register for events (heartbeat is one of them) and have a background thread to monitor for those events, while at the same time you can execute commands (answer calls, originate calls, bridge, hangup, schedule operations, etc) by just calling java methods
on instances of the Client class.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I think it’s better to use the FreeSWITCH heartbeat event to detect network outages instead of relying on the session_heartbeat (heartbeat events per call). After all, a network outage will affect your control of all calls, so as soon as FS is unreachable,
you won’t be able to control the calls anymore. For call disconnects, just listen for the CHANNEL_HANGUP event.</div>

<div dir="ltr">thank you all for your answers. As I want to implement it using only java and tcp I think using session heartbeat with a monitoring timer is my best solution.</div>

it's not Java-specific really.<br>
<br>
Imagine you have an open TCP connection that has no traffic, and<br>
somewhere inbetween there's a network failure. You will only know<br>
about it when you start sending the data, and the TCP timeout occurs.<br>
You will get the socket error exception only after all retransmission<br>
attempts failed, and that may take quite some significant time. If<br>
ICMP is allowed in the network, some failures would generate ICMP<br>
messages which will speed up the process, but you can't rely on this.<br>
<br>
So, if you need to know about the failure quickly enough, you need to<br>
monitor the server reachability with some connectionless protocol,<br>
like ICMP echo or some UDP-based keepalive.<br>
