Title: LINKCHECK_PERIOD needs to be configurable

Some operators kill connections if link checks aren't received far more often than the every 60s recommended by the spec. Values encountered in the wild are as low as every 15s (only 5s longer than the fastest rate allowed by the spec, i.e. every 10s).
