Refer to the exhibit. Which effect of this configuration is true?

The correct answer is A. It sets the keepalive timer to 30 seconds and the hold timer to 240 seconds.. The BGP timer command syntax is 'timers bgp <keepalive> <holdtime>', where both values are expressed in seconds by default. A configuration of 'timers bgp 30 240' sets the keepalive timer to 30 seconds and the hold timer to 240 seconds. The BGP keepalive interval defines how ofte

Explanation

The BGP timer command syntax is 'timers bgp <keepalive> <holdtime>', where both values are expressed in seconds by default. A configuration of 'timers bgp 30 240' sets the keepalive timer to 30 seconds and the hold timer to 240 seconds. The BGP keepalive interval defines how often keepalive messages are sent, and the hold timer defines how long a router waits without receiving a keepalive before declaring the peer dead. These are standard second-based timers, not milliseconds (ruling out B and C). Option D reverses the order of the two values, which is incorrect.
