How to set KeepAlive property on the SignalR ConfigurationManager

asp.net, signalr, web-config

Solution

you can set in global.asax:

protected void Application_Start()
{
   SignalR.GlobalHost.Configuration.KeepAlive = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(30);
}

Problem

I found this link about setting KeepAlive property on the ConfigurationManager for SignalR: https://github.com/SignalR/SignalR/issues/168 The problem is that I am having difficulty to understand where exactly this should be set. Should I set the ConfigurationManager in webconfig or is there an option to do this in code?
