sessions within a tunnel.

the L2TP V3 control connection.

Reconnect Attempt

Lists each policy’s maximum number of reconnection attempts available to reestablish the
tunnel if the connection is lost.

Reconnect Interval

Displays the duration set for each listed policy between two successive reconnection attempts.

Retry Count

Lists the number of retransmission attempts set for each listed policy before a target tunnel
peer is defined as not reachable.

Retry Time Out

Lists the interval the interval (in seconds) set for each listed policy before the retransmission of
a L2TP V3 signaling message.
