Well Tim, if you know what ILMI does and what a keepalive is you should not
have problems in fully understanding the command.
As you know in front of the router ATM interface there is a switch. If the
switch has the keepalives turned on, you may do it on the router too. That's
useful for example if you want the router to make sure that the prefix it
learnt one day ago is still valid. Or to make sure that the PVCs learned by
auto-discovery are still valid. Different switches may react different to
keepalive configuration.
In the CCIE lab you don't have access to the switch, so basically turn
keepalives on/off if ILMI is needed and not working as expected.
A piece of advice: be courteous, it's free ;)

I'm sorry Ato, but knowing how to enable or disable doesn't tell me WHEN OR
WHY ilmi-keepalives are needed or not needed and that is what I'm trying to
understand. It's OK if you don't know yourself and can't give me any
guidance.
Hopefully, someone else on GS knows and will post a response.

Hi Tim,
If you know what it does then that is all you need to know.
You will see this command appear by default in some IOS releases, but that
does not mean that the administrator typed it ;)
Cheers,
Ato.

Hi guys,
I know what "ATM ilmi-keepalive " does, but I can't figure out when
it's needed or not needed.
In some ATM config scenarios, I've seen it diabled but in other examples,
it's enabled.
Here's the link to the uninformative commadn reference.

I'm hoping someone can explain when and why it should or sho uldn't be used.
Thanks in advance, Tim
