Configuring extended keepalive settings
You can configure the Extended Keepalive settings using the following CLI commands:
Reporting on interface status
You report on the status of an interface using the
show interfaces
command. The command reports on
the administrative status of the interface, its operational status, and its extended operational status (the
Extended Keepalive status).
For example, if an interface is enabled but normal keepalive packets are failing, show interfaces displays:
FastEthernet 10/2 is up, line protocol is down
However, if normal keepalive reports that the connection is up but Extended Keepalive fails, the display
is:
FastEthernet 10/2 is up, line protocol is down (no KeepAlive)
The interface status is reported according to the following table:
Table 152: Extended Keepalive configuration commands
Command
Description
keepalive timeout
The time to wait for a response to a keepalive message
keepalive failure-retries

keepalive success-retries

the interface is declared up
keepalive interval
