Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

After an IP-GROUP channel is established, you can run the ip-group service timer heart-beat command to set the interval for sending IP-GROUP channel heartbeat packets. In this way, the device periodically sends heartbeat packets to the controller to detect connectivity of the IP-GROUP channel.

Precautions

If you want to modify the configuration after the IP-GROUP channel is established, run the undo ip-group service ip-address command to delete the IP-GROUP channel first.

Example

# Set the interval for sending IP-GROUP channel heartbeat packets to 6 minutes.
