Parameters
period: Specifies the interval for sending keepalive packets, in the range of 0 to 32767 seconds. The
value 0 disables keepalive packet sending.
Usage guidelines
A slow link takes a long period of time to transmit large packets. The sending and receiving of keepalives
might be delayed so long that one end cannot receive keepalive packets from the peer for 10 keepalive
periods. The end then shuts down the link. To prevent this, set the interval for sending keepalive packets
to a relatively longer length of time for a slow link.
Examples
# Set the interval for sending keepalive packets to 20 seconds on interface Serial 2/1/0.
