nettcpbinding

A WCF service is based on NetTcpBinding. It may happen that the client silently vanishes, leaving the server thinking that it is still connected.

I'm currently using a thread that pings all connected client to see if they are still alive, and removes disconnected clients.

Is a ping thread the correct way to solve the issue, or is there a better, possibly event-based way?
Do I have to surround every code that communicates with the client by try/catch and remove it from the list of connected clients additionally?
