Web API Timeout To Manually Set

Hi riang,
If you make an OPTIONS call to your WebAPI URL from SoapUI or Postman you would get the response with the timeout attribute something like this:
Connection: Keep-Alive
Keep-Alive: timeout=20, max=100
This means it allow the connection to be kept alive, for 20 seconds and for a maximum of 100 resources. These settings are controlled by the web server configuration, you need to set it up in your web server settings.
I am not sure whether it could be controlled/set manually in WebAPI level.
Thanks.

Agree with Smruti Swain, if an external system is calling Web API you can control with the settings he mentioned, but however it can be wait a maximum of settings of timings configured in Web Server.
