    idle-timeout (L2TP)

    Syntax

    idle-timeout seconds;

    Hierarchy Level

    [edit services l2tp tunnel]

    Release Information

    Statement introduced in Junos OS Release 12.1.

    Description

    Specify how long a tunnel is active after its last session is terminated. The timer starts when the session is terminated and the tunnel is disconnected when the timer expires.

    Best Practice: Before you downgrade to a Junos OS Release that does not support this statement, unconfigure the statement by issuing no services l2tp tunnel idle-timeout.

    Options

    seconds—Length of the idle timeout. A value of 0 creates a persistent tunnel; that is, the tunnel remains active indefinitely until the remote peer disconnects it or you issue the clear services l2tp tunnel command.

    Range: 0 through 86,400

    Default: 60

    Required Privilege Level

    interface—To view this statement in the configuration.
