Parameter
update-timer
: Value of the Period Update timer, ranging from 1 to 3,600 seconds. By
default, it is 30 seconds.
timeout-timer
: Value of the Timeout timer, ranging from 1 to 3,600 seconds. By default,
it is 180 seconds.
Description
Use the
timers
command to modify the values of the three RIP timers: Period Update,
Timeout, and Garbage-collection.
Use the
undo timers
command to restore the default settings.
By default, the Period Update, Timeout, and Garbage-collection timers are 30
seconds, 180 seconds, and 120 seconds, respectively.
Generally, it is regarded that the value of the Garbage-collection timer is fixed at four
times that of the Period Update timer. Adjusting the Period Update timer will affect the
Garbage-collection timer.
The modification of RIP timers is validated immediately.
