-Starting with `v2.11.2` the entryPoints `readTimeout` option default value changed to 5 seconds.
+Starting with `v2.11.2` the entryPoints [`readTimeout`](../routing/entrypoints.md#respondingtimeouts) option default value changed to 60 seconds.
 
 For HTTP, this option defines the maximum duration for reading the entire request, including the body.
 For TCP, this option defines the maximum duration for the first bytes to be read on the connection.
@@ -632,9 +632,6 @@ The default value was previously set to zero, which means no timeout.
 
 This change has been done to avoid Traefik instances with the default configuration to be hanging forever while waiting for bytes to be read on the connection.
 
-We suggest to adapt this value accordingly to your situation, as the new default value is purposely narrowed,
-it can make the connection be closed too early.

 Increasing the `readTimeout` value could be the solution notably if you are dealing with the following errors:
 
 - TCP: `Error while handling TCP connection: readfrom tcp X.X.X.X:X->X.X.X.X:X: read tcp X.X.X.X:X->X.X.X.X:X: i/o timeout`

     If zero, no timeout exists.  
     Can be provided in a format supported by [time.ParseDuration](https://golang.org/pkg/time/#ParseDuration) or as raw values (digits).
     If no units are provided, the value is parsed assuming seconds.
-    For requests with large payloads, this timeout value might be increased.
