device, you must configure the ip address ppp-negotiate command on the peer device in addition to
configuring the remote address command on the local device.
CAUTION:
• The IP address assigned to the peer device by the local device is not mandatory on the peer device, or
the peer device can still use a locally confi
g
ured IP address even if the local device assi
g
ned one to it. To
make the IP address assigned by the local device mandatory, you must configure the ppp ipcp
remote-address forced command.
• After you use the remote address command to assign an IP address for the peer device, you cannot
configure the remote address/undo remote address command for the peer again unless the peer
releases the assigned IP address. Shut down the port to release the assigned IP address before you
configure the remote address/undo remote address command for the peer. However, after you use the
command to assign an IP address to the peer from the address pool of the specified domain through
AAA authentication, you can configure the command for the peer again. In this case, the original
assigned IP address can still work, and the newly assigned IP address is used when the ori
g
inal one is
released or used by a new PPP access.
• This command does not take effect until the next IPCP negotiation. To make the remote address
command take effect, configure the remote address command before the ip address command.
Related commands: ip address ppp-negotiate, and ppp ipcp remote-address forced.

Parameters
seconds: Interval (in seconds) for sending keepalive packets, in the range 0 to 32767. A value of 0
disables keepalive packet sending.
Description
Use timer hold to set the interval for sending keepalive packets.
Use undo timer hold to restore the default, or 10 seconds.
Because a slow link takes long to transmit large packets, the sending and receiving of keepalives may be
delayed so long that one end cannot receive keepalive packets from the peer for a specific number of
