Usage
Each tunnel maintains a queue of control messages to be transmitted to its peer. After a period of time passes
without acknowledgement, a message is retransmitted. Each subsequent retransmission of a message employs
an exponential backoff interval. For example; if the first retransmission occurs after 1 second, the next
retransmission occurs after 2 seconds has elapsed, then the next after 4 seconds. If no peer response is
detected after the number of retransmissions set by this command, the tunnel and all sessions within are
cleared.
Use this command to set the maximum number of retransmissions that the LAC service sends before closing
the tunnel and all sessions within. it.
