hold-time
Use this command to set the global value for the hold-time after which the LSR rejects adjacencies.
An LSR maintains a record of hellos received from peers. Hold-time specifies the time an LSR maintains its record of hellos from a peer on not receiving another hello from that peer. A pair of LSRs negotiates the hold-time they use for hellos from each other. Each proposes a hold time value, and the LSR uses the lower of the two hold-time values. The hold-time value set on the interface overrides the hold-time value set by this command (see ldp hold-time). For optimum performance, set this value to no less than three times the value of the hello-interval specified.
Use the no parameter to revert to the default hold time.
