Keep Alive Time
MLAG peer switches periodically transmit keep alive packets to maintain the relationship between peer
switches. The value of the keep alive transmit timer is user configurable.
The keep alive mechanism identifies one of the peer switches as the primary and another as the
secondary switch based on the switch system MAC address. The switch with the lower MAC address will
be the primary switch.
Follow the steps below to configure MLAG Keep alive time.
