Hi,

  Their are two sets of values one is Cisco's default and the other is of
the RFC's.
Cisco:
Connect Retry:  120sec.
Hold-time: 90sc.
keepAlive: 30sec.

RFC:
ConnectRetry: 120sec.
Hold-time: 180sec.
KeepAlive: 60sec.

Have you looked at the RFC?

What problem are you trying to solve by changing these timers? 
There's quite a bit of thought that goes into the default values, and 
it may be more appropriate to use other protocol mechanisms rather 
than changing timers. Route flap dampening, for example, interacts 
heavily with the keepalive and hold timers.
