Neighbor Timers - Motorola BSR 64000 Reference Manual

neighbor timers

The neighbor timers command sets the timers for a particular BGP peer or peer
group. The no neighbor command clears the timers for a particular BGP peer or peer
group.
Use the neighbor timers command to configure a specific neighbor or peer-group
timers values to bypass the timers configured for all BGP neighbors using the timers
bgp command.
Note: If, during the negotiated holdtime (which is the smallest of configured
hold time and the holdtime advertised by the neighbor), no messages arrive,
the peer will be brought down. If the negotiated holdtime is 0, then the peer
will never be brought down, because it hasn't received any messages. If the
value of the keepalive timer is 0, then no keepalive messages will be sent.
