Setting the HTTP Client timeout to -1

The documentation states "A value of -1 defers timeout monitoring to the operating system."  

I am trying to figure out what that means in regard to Windows operating systems and I have not been able to dig up anything.

 

Will the VI wait forever for a response or is there a global timeout value it will use?

Thank you for the response but I've verified that there are no timeout headers being sent. In addition, when the timeout occurs the request throws a LabVIEW error (57) instead of HTTP 408 which makes me think this process is client only.
