This command configures the peer keepalive timeout value (in seconds). If an
MLAG switch does not receive keepalive messages from the peer for this
timeout value, it takes the decision to transition its role (if required).
The keepalive state machine is not restarted if keepalive priority is modified
post election.

Introduced in version 6.2.0.1 firmware.
Example
console(config-vpc 1)# peer-keepalive timeout 10

Use the no form of the command to return the switch priority to the default
value.
