device and all its neighbor have the RSVP GR capability and have exchanged GR parameters, each of
them can function as the GR helper of another device.
A GR helper considers that a GR restarter is rebooting when it receives no hello packets from the restarter
in a specific period of time. When a GR restarter is rebooting, the GR helpers retain soft state information
about the GR restarter and continue sending hello packets periodically to the GR restarter until the restart
timer expires.
If a GR helper receives a hello message from the GR restarter before the restart timer expires, the recovery
timer is started and signaling packet exchange is triggered to restore the original soft state. Otherwise,
all RSVP soft state information and forwarding entries relevant to the neighbor are removed. When the
recovery timer expires, soft state information and forwarding entries that are not restored are removed.
