Motorola BSR 2000 manual Neighbor timers

Release 1.0 BGP Commands

neighbor timers

The neighbor timers command sets the timers for a particular BGP peer or peer group. The no neighbor timers command clears the timers for a particular BGP peer or peer group.

Use the neighbor timers command to configure a specific neighbor or peer-group timers values to bypass the timers configured for all BGP neighbors using the timers bgp command.

Note: If, during the negotiated holdtime (which is the smallest of configured hold time and the holdtime advertised by the neighbor), no messages arrive, the peer will be brought down. If the negotiated holdtime is 0, then the peer will never be brought down, because it hasn't received any messages. If the value of the keepalive timer is 0, then no keepalive messages will be sent.
