The proxies are on a OPNsense-business 24.10.2 with the version 1.7 of os-OPNWAF
All installed on a Hardware OPNsense / Deciso DEC3842
Some complex applications with a intensive tasks between middleware and database server need the global timeout parameter on the BalancerMember proxy. We can see sometimes timeouts in the logs and the connectiontimeout field is no solution.

In the Web Application part of the os-OPNWAF Business plugin Gateways -> Locations in the Proxy Options their is a field for Connection timeout (the connectiontimeout parameter). It could be great to add here the global connection timeout parameter (Ref: https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_proxy.html#proxyset)
Describe alternatives you've considered

As this is a customer application with a lot of development work, we have no choice but to enter the parameter ourselves in the /usr/local/etc/apache24/Includes/gateway_vhosts.conf file, but it's only a temporary solution
