Hi, in case one has following settings active with it's BGP peer: Holdtime: 90 Preference: 170 Active Holdtime: 90 Keepalive Interval: 30
..then what do they mean? As I understand, "Holdtime" is the maximum number of seconds allowed to elapse between the time that a BGP system receives successive keepalive or update messages from a peer. So if the holdtime is configured to 90s, the "Holdtime" value under "show bgp neighbor I.I.P.P" doesn't change, does it? How is "Active Holdtime" different from "Holdtime"? And what does this "Preference" mean? Last but not least- in case of the configuration above, is it possible that the connection between peers is down for example 80 seconds and then comes back up, but as holdtime is set to 90s, the session stays up? regards, martin _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
