TCP Server Socket with keep alive / No Timeout INT occurs when client is killed

Hello,
i am using a WIZ550IO for communication.
E.g. SOCKET 7 configured as TCP Server, Keep Alive Timer set to 0x06 (30Sec) (see Dump Data below), Port 6000.
I connect a client, pull off the network connector, wait a minute so that the client has no chance to disconnect, and reconnect the network cable.
The socket remains now in the connected state 0x17.
I was of the opinion that now the WIZ module should determin the missing client by sending a keep alive packet and set the timeout INT (my application would initialize the socket after this)
But is does not. As well when i set socket CMD 0x22 to send the KA packet i can see no activity (Whire shark)
The only way is to transmit at least one byte, then the WIZ module start the retrys and sets timeout after the period set.
See the register setting of the module common and socket common below.
Anything missing or wrong ?
Thx in advance for helpful input.

No, everything is correct.

Server waits for incoming packets, and it will be waiting forever until it will receive something - FIN, RST, or data.

You do it manually (0x22), or use keep-alive timer.

Datasheet says:

KA packet is transmittable after Sn_SR is changed to SOCK_ESTABLISHED and after the data is transmitted or received to/from a peer at least once.

There will be no keep-alive (neither 0x22 nor automatic using timer) if there was no prior communication.

Thank you for the information.
In fact the TCP server starts sending KEEP ALIVE packets first when a TX packet was transferred by the TCP Server.
RX packets witout response by the server will not start the KA process. (even if KA timer is set or CMD 0x22 is written to the Command Reg.)

I will resolve the detection of those dead connections in an other way. (no activity, after a defined timeout , send 1 Byte TX, this should start the KA process)
