Use the undo keepalive command to disable the keepalive function.
By default, the GRE keepalive function is disabled.
With the GRE keepalive function enabled on a tunnel interface, the device sends
GRE keepalive packets from the tunnel interface periodically. If no response is
received from the peer within the specified interval, the device retransmits a
keepalive packet. If the device still receives no response from the peer after a
keepalive packet is transmitted for the maximum number of attempts, the local
tunnel interface goes down and keeps down until it receives a keepalive
acknowledgement packet from the peer.
Related command: interface tunnel.
Example # Set the GRE keepalive interval to 20 seconds and the maximum number of
attempts for transmitting a keepalive packet to 5.

Parameter ip-address: Source IPv4 address for a tunnel interface.
Ipv6-address: Source IPv6 address for a tunnel interface.
interface-type interface-number: Type and number of the source interface for a
tunnel interface. The interface type can be Ethernet, VLAN, serial, ATM, tunnel, or
loopback.
Description Use the
source command to specify the source address or interface for a tunnel
interface.
Use the
undo source command to remove the configuration.
By default, no source address or interface is configured for a tunnel interface.
Note that:
The source address of a tunnel interface is the address of the interface sending
GRE packets and is usually the destination address of the peer tunnel interface.
Two or more tunnel interfaces using the same encapsulation protocol must
have different source addresses and destination addresses.
