Using Site Manager
Keeping the Connection Alive
After a session has been established, BGP peers periodically issue keepalive
messages to maintain the connection. By default, BGP issues a keepalive message
every 30 seconds.
You can use the BCC or Site Manager to specify how often BGP issues a
keepalive message on this peer-to-peer session or to disable the keepalive function
by setting the value to 0.
