Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

During the PPP negotiation, if the local end does not receive the response packet of the peer, PPP re-sends the packet. If you want to change the default, you can run the ppp timer command.

Configuration Impact

If the ppp timer command is run more than once in the same view, the latest configuration overrides the previous one.

Precautions

In VS mode, this command is supported only by the admin VS.

when a specified value is smaller than the default value, it may cause high CPU usage and overburden the system.
