The keepalive only triggers after the connection has been idle for
(net.inet.tcp.keepidle / 2) seconds; by default this is 2 hours.  You
could set net.inet.tcp.keepidle to something a little smaller than
1800, which unfortunately causes the change system-wide.  There is no
current way to set keepidle for an individual connection.
