A new Flyspray task has been opened.  Details are below. 

User who did this - alxwk (alxwk) 

Attached to Project - OpenWrt/LEDE Project
Summary - ppp: uses weird defaults for "keepalive", inconsistent with luci
Task Type - Bug Report
Category - Packages
Status - Unconfirmed
Assigned To - 
Operating System - All
Severity - Low
Priority - Very Low
Reported Version - openwrt-19.07
Due in Version - Undecided
Due Date - Undecided
Details - By default, luci PPPoE (and probably other PPP-based) interface page doesn't set any value for `network..keepalive`, so in the absence of that /lib/netifd/proto/ppp.sh
sets values lcp-echo-interval=1 and lcp-echo-failure=5. First, every 1 second is too frequent (which can lead to connectivity issues, as said in FS#2819), next, they don't correspond to the defaults displayed in luci (`0` for "LCP echo failure threshold" and `5` for "LCP echo interval"), and worse of all, they are impossible to be disabled by using luci, as any attempt to set "LCP echo failure threshold" to 0 makes luci to just delete network..keepalive with the aforementioned consequences. The only workaround is to set "keepalive" through uci command line.
