TL;DR:
Where is the difference between the ping_interval and master_alive_interval settings, as they seem to do the same?
Long version:
I am running a saltstack fleet with around 600 minions (most of them are Raspberry Pis). Since adding the last 100 minions, I have often experienced connection timeouts when applying a state.apply or similar.
```
salt.exceptions.SaltReqTimeoutError: Salt request timed out. The master is not responding. You may need to run your command with `--async`, the CLI tool will print the job id (jid) and exit immediately without listening for responses. You can then use `salt-run jobs.lookup_jid` to look up the results of the job in the job cache later.
```
The server should be fine (8 CPUs, 16GB RAM), as I doubled the specs some days ago without any improvement.
Within the minion config, I set the following:
```
ping_interval: 1
mine_function:
network.ip_adds:
- type: private
master_alive_interval: 30
```
Where is the difference between the ping_interval and master_alive_interval settings, as they seem to do the same?
Also, there are a lot of minion_ping events on the event bus.
Thanks
