Connection Timer Configuration
Keepalive messages are sent by a router to inform another router that the BGP connec-
tion between the two is still active. The keepalive interval is the period of time between
each keepalive message sent by the router. The holdtime interval is the time the router
waits to receive a keepalive message and if it does not receive a message for this period
it declares the neighbor dead.
To set the timers for a specific BGP neighbor, use the following command.
