Statement introduced in Junos OS Release 9.0 for EX Series switches.
Specify the hold-time value to use when negotiating a connection with the peer. The
hold-time value is advertised in open packets and indicates to the peer the length of time
that it should consider the sender valid. If the peer does not receive a keepalive, update,
or notification message within the specified hold time, the BGP connection to the peer
is closed and routing devices through that peer become unavailable.
The hold time is three times the interval at which keepalive messages are sent.

Range: 20 through 65,535 seconds
