Time interval in seconds for the Hold Time configured for this BGP speaker with this peer. This value is placed in an OPEN message sent to this peer by this BGP speaker, and is compared with the Hold Time field in an OPEN message received from the peer when determining the Hold Time (bgpPeerHoldTime) with the peer. This value must not be less than three seconds if it is not zero (0) in which case the Hold Time is NOT to be established with the peer. The value of this object is only allowed to be zero (0) if the value of bgpPeerKeepAliveConfigd is also zero (0). The suggested value for this timer is 90 seconds. This field can be changed at any time. However, if the field is changed while the peer is admin_status UP, the change will only take effect after the peer has been cycled admin_status DOWN and then UP, thus forcing the peer session to be restarted. In this case, until the peer is set admin_status DOWN, the peer will be marked as out of date (as reported by the config_state field in the AMB_BGP_PEER_STATUS row for the peer).
