Anyone have experience with hold timers?
For the first time in my experience I have a carrier asking me to implement 3 second hold timers on their interface to deal with their link constantly flapping. They're citing this document as proof that it needs to be done: https://www.juniper.net/documentation/en_US/junos/topics/reference/configuration-statement/hold-time-edit-interfaces.html I'm extremely dubious of this requirement since I've never had a carrier ask for this and our router is a pretty old MX80 which does not have a lot of buffer space. But then again, maybe packet drops due to buffer overflow are better than carrier transitions and the resulting BGP teardown and rebuild.
