Re: [AFMUG] BGP Timers

It does not hurt to ask.. 
Depends on a few factors... 
So running bfd with IP transit providers is available upon request. 
In an IXP peering situation, I am not sure what is the pro's and con's .. maybe 
someone else can chime in .

Is this typical in a public peering setup? I mean do providers want to run
BFD towards their customers?

BTW... just FYI... 

If you are able to have a working bfd option available, that is always the best 
option, it is one of the fastest link drop change detection available, 
regardless of what the protocol timers are set for.

Thanks for the info.
Being that our circuit has been stable, I'm not worried about flapping. If
it does go nuts some day I would just take the peer down until we resolve
whatever is going on.
But three minutes feels like a long time to wait for the peer to drop while
traffic is just slamming in to a dead route.

Yep, we change it to 10 and 30.  The only issue you can have is if you flap but 
I have not had that issue as of yet.

Does anyone ever modify the default bgp keep-alive and hold timers in order to 
facilitate a faster fail over time when peer drops?
Waiting the default three minutes seems like a very long time.
