CLI Reference Guide
Use this command to adjust BGP network timers. Use the no form of this
command to restore the timers to the default value.
Specifies the frequency, in seconds, with which the switch sends KEEPALIVE
messages to its BGP peer. The range is from 0 to 65535.
(Optional) Specifies the interval, in seconds, after not receiving a KEEPALIVE
message that the switch declares a BGP peer dead. The range is from 0 to
65535.
KEEP-ALIVE: 60 seconds
HOLD-TIME: 180 seconds
Router configuration.
The suggested default value for the KEEPALIVE is one third (1/3) of the
HOLDTIME. The timers configured for a specific neighbor or peer group (by the
command "neighbor timers" on page 438) overrides the timers configured for
all BGP neighbors using the timers bgp command.
When the minimum acceptable HOLD-TIME is configured on a BGP router, a
remote BGP peer session is established only if the remote peer is advertising a
HOLD-TIME that is equal to, or greater than, the minimum acceptable HOLD-
TIME interval. If the minimum acceptable HOLD-TIME interval is greater than the
configured HOLD-TIME, the next time the remote session tries to establish, it will
fail and the local router will send a notification stating unacceptable hold time.
This example shows how to change the KEEP-ALIVE timer to 50 seconds and
the HOLD-TIME timer to 150 seconds:
