configure ospf vlan timer
configure ospf vlan [<vlan-name> | all] timer <retransmit-interval>
<transit-delay> <hello-interval> <dead-interval> {<wait-timer-interval>}
Description
Configures the OSPF wait interval for a VLAN or all VLANs.
Syntax Description
Default
●
retransmit interval—5 seconds.
●
transit delay—1 second.
●
hello interval—10 seconds.
●
dead interval—40 seconds.
●
wait timer interval—dead interval.
Usage Guidelines
Specify the following:
●
retransmit interval—If you set an interval that is too short, unnecessary retransmissions will result.
●
transit delay—The transit delay must be greater than 0.
●
hello interval—Smaller times allow routers to discover each other more quickly, but also increase
network traffic.
●
dead interval—This interval should be a multiple of the hello interval.
●
wait timer interval—This interval is required by the OSPF standard to be equal to the router dead
interval. Under some circumstances, setting the wait interval to smaller values can help OSPF routers
on a broadcast network to synchronize more quickly at the expense of possibly electing an incorrect
DR or BDR. This value should not be set to less than the hello interval. The default value is equal to
the router dead interval.
vlan-name
Specifies a VLAN name.
retransmit-interval
Specifies the length of time that the router waits before retransmitting an LSA
that is not acknowledged. The range is 1 - 3,600.
transit-delay
Specifies the length of time it takes to transmit an LSA packet over the
interface. The range is 0 - 3,600 seconds.
hello-interval
Specifies the interval at which routers send hello packets. The range is 1 -
65,535 seconds.
dead-interval
Specifies the interval after which a neighboring router is declared down due to
the fact that hello packets are no longer received from the neighbor. The range
is 1 - 2,147,483,647.
wait-timer-interval
Specifies the interval between the interface coming up and the election of the
DR and BDR. Usually equal to the dead timer interval.
