neighbor timers

Use this command in BGP Router Config mode to override the global timer values and set
the keepalive and hold timers for a specific neighbor. The new values are not applied to
adjacencies already in the ESTABLISHED state. A new keepalive or hold time is applied the
next time an adjacency is formed.
Issue this command in Peer Template Configuration Mode to add it to a peer template.
Default The keepalive and hold timers default to the globally configured values set with the
command.

Parameter Description
ip-address The neighbor's IP address. This is the IP address on the link that connects the two peers.
keepalive The time, in seconds, between BGP KEEPALIVE packets sent to a neighbor. The range is 0 to
65,535 seconds. Jitter is applied to the keepalive interval.
holdtime The time, in seconds, that BGP continues to consider a neighbor to be alive without receiving a BGP
KEEPALIVE or UPDATE packet from the neighbor. If no KEEPALIVE is received from a neighbor for
longer than the hold time, BGP drops the adjacency. If the hold time is set to 0, then BGP does not
enforce a hold time and BGP does not send periodic KEEPALIVE messages. The range is 0 to
65,535 seconds.
no neighbor timers
This command reverts the keep alive and hold time for a peer to their defaults. After
executing this command, the BGP peer must be reset before the changes will take effect.
