The keepalive program has two procedures: PING, and PONG.
Both are used only in asynchronous messages and the sender doesn't wait
for any reply. However, the party which receives PING messages is
supposed to react by sending PONG message the other party, but no
explicit binding between PING and PONG messages is made. For backward
compatibility neither server nor client are allowed to send keepalive
messages before checking that remote party supports them.
