regarding better paths is suppressed.

Example
This example shows how to set RIP timers to a 5 second update time, a 10 second invalid interval,
a 20 second holdown time, and a 60 second flush time:
basic Specifies a basic configuration for RIP routing timers.
update_seconds Specifies the rate (seconds between updates) at which
routing updates are sent. Valid values are 0 to 4294967295.
invalid_seconds Specifies the interval (in seconds) after which a route is
declared invalid. Valid values are 1 to 4294967295.
holdown_seconds Specifies the interval (in seconds) during which routing
information regarding better paths is suppressed. Valid
values are 0 to 4294967295.
flush_seconds Specifies the interval (in seconds) after which a route is
deleted. Valid values are 0 to 4294967295.
