Description: The mechanism used to keep the tunnel from timing out.

What is clabGRETunnelKeepAlivePolicy?

This INTEGER object selects the mechanism (icmp(1) or none(2)) used to keep the GRE tunnel from timing out due to inactivity. An engineer sets it to icmp(1) when the tunnel needs active keepalive probing to stay up through NAT or stateful firewalls, or to none(2) if the transport path doesn't require it. For example, choosing icmp(1) for a tunnel traversing a NAT gateway helps prevent the NAT's session-tracking entry for the tunnel from expiring due to idle time.
