12.2 Configuring session parameters in LDP
By default, hello messages sent out are set to the following values:
Parameter LDP
Hello interval 5 seconds
Hold timer 15 seconds
Keepalive holdtime 180 seconds
Hold timer is a matching parameter — the smallest is chosen. This example shows that the ESR after matching
the Hold timer is 10 seconds.

Hello interval: 5 seconds
Transport IP address: 4.4.4.4
LDP ID: 1.1.1.1
Source IP address: 10.10.10.1
Transport IP address: 1.1.1.1
Hold time: 10 seconds
Proposed hold time: 15/10 (local/peer) seconds
If after matching, the Hello interval is greater than the Hold timer, then the Hello interval will be equal to Hold
timer/3.
