Chapter 1 Configuring the ASA to Integrate with Cisco TrustSec
Purpose
Specifies the default time interval between ASA
attempts to set up new SXP connections between
SXP peers. The ASA continues to make connection
attempts until a successful connection is made.
The retry timer is triggered as long as there is one
SXP connection on the ASA that is not up.
Where timervalue is the number of seconds in the
range of 0 to 64000 seconds.
If you specify 0 seconds, the timer never expires and
the ASA will not attempt to connect to SXP peers.
By default, the timervalue is 120 seconds.
When the retry timer expires, the ASA goes through
the connection database and if the database contains
any connections that are off or in a "pending on"
state, the ASA restarts the retry timer.
We recommend you configure the retry timer to a
different value from its SXP peer devices.
Specifies the value of the default reconcile timer.
After an SXP peer terminates its SXP connection, the
ASAstarts a hold down timer.
If an SXP peer connects while the hold down timer is
running, the ASA starts the reconcile timer; then, the
ASA updates the SXP mapping database to learn the
latest mappings.
When the reconcile timer expires, the ASA scans the
SXP mapping database to identify stale mapping
entries (entries that were learned in a previous
connection session). The ASA marks these
connections as obsolete. When the reconcile timer
expires, the ASA removes the obsolete entries from
the SXP mapping database.
Where timervalue is the number of seconds in the
range of 1 to 64000 seconds.
By default, the timervalue is 120 seconds.
You cannot specify 0 for the timer because specifying
0 would prevent the reconcile timer from starting.
Not allowing the reconcile timer to run would keep
stale entries for an undefined time and cause
unexpected results from the policy enforcement.
