Setting the extended timer

To configure BGP idle hold time, use the following commands.

Timer values configured with the neighbor timers extended command override the timer values configured with the timers bgp extended command.

The peer remains in idle state based on the configured idle-holdtime. The less the idle-holdtime, lesser the peer remains in idle state.

NOTE For the new idle-holdtime to take effect, you need to shutdown the respective peer manually using neighbor shutdown command and enable the peer again.
  • Configure idle-holdtime values for a BGP neighbor or peer group.
    CONFIG-ROUTER-BGP mode
    neighbors {ip-address | ipv6-address | peer-group-name} timers extended idle-holdtime
    idle-holdtime: the range is from 1 to 32767. Time interval, in seconds, during which the peer remains in idle state. The default is 15 seconds.
  • Configure idle-holdtime values for all BGP neighbors.
    CONFIG-ROUTER-BGP mode
    timers bgp extended idle holdtime
    idle-holdtime: the range is from 1 to 32767. Time interval, in seconds, during which the peer remains in idle state. The default is 15 seconds.
