Syntax
mpls ldp timer { hello-hold timeout | hello-interval interval | keepalive-hold timeout | keepalive-interval
interval }
undo mpls ldp timer { hello-hold | hello-interval | keepalive-hold | keepalive-interval }
Default
The Link Hello hold time is 15 seconds, the Link Hello interval is 5 seconds, the Targeted Hello hold time
is 45 seconds, the Targeted Hello interval is 15 seconds, the Keepalive hold time is 45 seconds, and the
Keepalive interval is 15 seconds.

Parameters
hello-hold timeout: Specifies the Hello hold time in the range of 1 to 65535 seconds. LDP keeps the hello
adjacency during the Hello hold time. The negotiated Hello hold time takes the smaller value of the local
Hello hold time and the peer Hello hold time. If LDP receives no Hello message from the peer before the
Hello hold timer expires, LDP deletes the Hello adjacency with the peer. If you set the Hello hold time to
65535, LDP permanently keeps the Hello adjacency.
hello-interval interval: Specifies the Hello interval in the range of 1 to 65535 seconds. LDP sends Hello
messages at this interval.
keepalive-hold timeout: Specifies the Keepalive hold time in the range of 15 to 65535 seconds. LDP
keeps the LDP session with the peer during the Keepalive hold time. The negotiated Keepalive hold time
takes the smaller value of the local Keepalive hold time and the peer Keepalive hold time. If LDP receives
no LDP message from the peer before the Keepalive hold timer expires, LDP deletes the LDP session with
the peer.
keepalive-interval interval: Specifies the Keepalive interval in the range of 1 to 65535 seconds. LDP
sends Keepalive messages to the peer at this interval.
Usage guidelines
Using this command in interface view, you set a Link Hello hold time and a Link Hello interval. Using this
command in LDP peer view, you set a Targeted Hello hold time and a Targeted Hello interval.
If the Hello hold time and the Keepalive hold time values are too large, LDP cannot quickly detect link
failures. If the values are too small, LDP may mistakenly consider a normal link failed. HP recommends
that you use the default values.
If two LSRs have multiple LDP links in between, make sure that those links have the same Keepalive hold
time.
During LDP session negotiation, an LSR compares the local Hello hold time with the Hello hold time of the
peer LSR, and uses the smaller one as the negotiated Hello hold time. If the negotiated Hello hold time
is larger than three times the local Hello interval, the LSR sends Hello messages at the local Hello interval.
Otherwise, the LSR sends Hello messages at an interval 1/3 of the negotiated Hello hold time.
During LDP session negotiation, an LSR compares the local Keepalive hold time with the Keepalive hold
time of the peer LSR, and uses the smaller one as the negotiated Keepalive hold time. If the negotiated
Keepalive hold time is larger than three times the local Keepalive interval, the LSR sends Keepalive
