 - In case of network outage, leading to dropping all packets with no RST/FIN, the timeout value (in seconds) determined by the `request_timeout` argument, would be the time duration for how long the client will wait before dropping the connection.
 
 - When the timeout happens, an exception will be raised, for eg. ~
