512
Default command level
2: System level
Parameters
group-name: Specifies the name of a peer group, a sting of 1 to 47 characters.
ip-address: Specifies the IP address of a peer.
keepalive: Specifies the keepalive interval in seconds, ranging from 0 to 21845.
holdtime: Specifies the holdtime interval in seconds, whose value is 0 or in the range of 3 to 65535.
Usage guidelines
The timers configured with this command are preferred to the timers configured with the timer command.
If the holdtime is configured as 0, no keepalive message is sent to the peer, and the peer connection
never times out. If the keepalive interval is configured as 0 and the negotiated hold time is not 0, one
third of the hold time is taken as the interval for sending keepalive messages.
If neither the holdtime nor the keepalive interval is configured as 0, the holdtime must be at least three
times the keepalive interval.
After this command is executed, the peer connection is closed at once, and a new connection to the peer
is negotiated using the configured hold time.
Examples
# In BGP view, configure the keepalive interval and holdtime for peer group test as 60s and 180s.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] bgp 100
[Sysname-bgp] peer test timer keepalive 60 hold 180
# In BGP-VPN instance view, configure the keepalive interval and holdtime for peer group test as 60s
and 180s. (The VPN has been created.)
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] bgp 100
[Sysname-bgp] ipv4-family vpn-instance vpn1
[Sysname-bgp-ipv4-vpn1] peer test timer keepalive 60 hold 180
# In BGP view, configure both the keepalive interval and holdtime for peer group test as 0 seconds,
indicating the peer group never times out.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] bgp 100
[Sysname-bgp] peer test timer keepalive 0 hold 0
# In BGP-VPN instance view, configure both the keepalive interval and holdtime interval for peer group
test as 0 seconds, indicating the peer group never times out. (vpn1 must have been created.)
<Sysname> system-view
