9.5.3 Configuring the Interval for Sending Update Packets

When a route changes, a router sends an Update packet to notify its peer. If a route changes
frequently, to prevent the router from sending Update packets for every change, you can set the
interval for sending Update packets for changes of this route.

9.5.4 Setting the BGP4+ ConnectRetry Interval
You can speed up or slow down the establishment of BGP4+ peer relationships to adapt the
network changes by changing the BGP4+ ConnectRetry interval.
Context
When BGP4+ initiates a TCP connection, the ConnectRetry timer is stopped if the TCP
connection is established successfully. If the first attempt to establish a TCP connection fails,
BGP4+ tries again to establish the TCP connection after the ConnectRetry timer expires. The
ConnectRetry interval can be adjusted as needed.
Issue 02 (2014-09-30)
The Keepalive and hold timer values are set for a specific peer or peer group.
For information about the relationship between the keepalive-time and hold-time
values, see Configure BGP4+ timers for all peers or peer
NOTE
Setting the Keepalive time to 20s is recommended. If the Keepalive time is smaller than 20s,
sessions between peers may be closed.
Timers set for a specific peer or peer group takes precedence over timers set for all
peers or peer groups.
