Usage guidelines
The VAM server sends this setting in a registration response to its clients. All clients in a VPN use the same
keepalive settings. However, if you change the keepalive settings of the server, the new settings are sent
to only clients that register later. All clients registering before use the old settings.
Examples
# Set the client keepalive interval to 30 seconds.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] vam server vpn 1
[Sysname-vam-server-vpn-1] keepalive interval 30
