The command configures the keep-alive and hold timer intervals of the MSDP peers.
| peer all | Specifies all MSDP peers. |
| remoteaddr | Specifies the IP address of the MSDP peer. |
| keep-alive-sec | Specifies the keep-alive timer interval in seconds. The range is1–60 seconds. |
| hold-time-sec | Specifies the hold timer interval in seconds. The range is 3–75 seconds. |
| vrname | Specifies the name of the virtual router to which this command applies. If a name is not specified, it is extracted from the current CLI context. |
You can use this command only when either MSDP or the MSDP peer is disabled. The hold timer interval must be greater than the keep-alive timer interval.
The following example configures the keep-alive and hold timer intervals for the MSDP peer 55.0.0.83:
configure msdp peer 55.0.0.83 timer keep-alive 30 hold-time 60
