If a STA has a peer that it hasn't seen any tx activity from for a certain length of time, the peer link is expired. This means the inactive STA is removed from the list of peers and that STA is not considered a peer again unless it re-peers. Previously, this inactivity time was always 30 minutes. Now, add it to the mesh configuration and allow it to be configured. Retain 30 minutes as a default value.
