Hi,

Here's the output from the sh ip bgp nei 150.1.5.5 which is interesting but
disturbing.

Rack1R4#sh ip bgp nei 150.1.5.5
BGP neighbor is 150.1.5.5, remote AS 200, internal link
  BGP version 4, remote router ID 150.1.5.5
  BGP state = Established, up for 00:51:20
  Last read 00:00:09, hold time is 180, keepalive interval is 60 seconds
  Configured hold time is 0, keepalive interval is 0 seconds
<- Damn it, why dont' you listen?
  Neighbor capabilities:
    Route refresh: advertised and received(old & new)
    Address family IPv4 Unicast: advertised and received

As you can see, bgp knows what the configured keepalive and holdtime is but is
NOT obeying this.

Anyone know why that is and what I can do about it?

TIA, Tim
