Release Information
Statement introduced in Junos OS Release 12.3.
Description
Specify the keepalive interval to use when maintaining a connection with the MSDP peer. If a keepalive message is not received for the hold-time period, the MSDP peer connection is terminated. According to the RFC 3618, Multicast Source Discovery Protocol (MSDP), the recommended value for the keepalive timer is 60 seconds.
The hold-time period must be longer than the keepalive interval.
You might want to change the keepalive interval and hold-time period for consistency in a multi-vendor environment.
Default
In Junos OS, the default hold-time period is 75 seconds, and the default keepalive interval is 60 seconds.
