Rate, in seconds, updates are sent. This is the
fundamental timing parameter of the routing
protocol.
Interval of time, in seconds, after which a route is
declared invalid. This value should be at least three
times the value of update.
A route becomes invalid when there is an absence of
updates that refresh the route. The route then enters
holddown. The route is marked inaccessible and
advertised as unreachable. However, the route is still
used for forwarding packets.
