peer timer (BGP/BGP-VPN instance view)

Syntax
peer { group-name | ip-address } timer keepalive keepalive hold holdtime
undo peer { group-name | ip-address } timer
View
BGP view, BGP-VPN instance view
Default level
2: System level
Parameters
group-name: Name of a peer group, a sting of 1 to 47 characters.
ip-address: IP address of a peer.
keepalive: Keepalive interval in seconds, ranging from 0 to 21845.
holdtime: Holdtime interval in seconds, whose value is 0 or in the range of 3 to 65535.
Description
Use peer timer to configure the keepalive interval and holdtime interval for a peer or peer group.
Use undo peer timer to restore the default.
By default, the keepalive and holdtime are 60s and 180s.
The timers configured with this command are preferred to the timers configured with the timer
command.
If the holdtime interval is configured as 0, no keepalive message will be sent to the peer, and the peer
connection will never time out. If the keepalive interval is configured as 0 and the negotiated hold
time is not 0, one third of the hold time is taken as the interval for sending keepalive messages.
If neither the holdtime interval nor the keepalive interval is configured as 0, the holdtime interval must
be at least three times the keepalive interval.
After this command is executed, the peer connection is closed at once, and a new connection to the
peer is negotiated using the configured hold time.
