# deadPeerDetectionRate

The frequency at which the IKEv2 client will run the dead peer detection algorithm.

## Declaration

```swift
var deadPeerDetectionRate: NEVPNIKEv2DeadPeerDetectionRate { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion The IKEv2 client periodically communicates with the IKEv2 server to detect when communication with the IKEv2 server has been interrupted. This property specifies how frequently this communication takes place. The default is NEVPNIKEv2DeadPeerDetectionRate.medium.
