[AusNOG] BGP hold timer values

[Tom Berryman]

for iBGP or eBGP?

i use lower for iBGP and BFD where i can.

keep alives "should" be as frequent or more frequent than 1/3rd of your hold.

Hi

I'm wonder what is considered "best practice" or good/responsible hold timer values for BGP.

Currently I'm set at 3m, but I am considering lowering this to 30s and keep alive down to 20s, potentially even lower. Or if possible to use BFD & BGP, what's the uptake on BFD ?
