database-overflow-interval (OSPF)
Configures frequency for monitoring database overflow.
Synopsis database-overflow-interval interval
no database-overflow-interval
Operands interval Time interval at which the device checks to see if the overflow condition
has been eliminated. Valid values range from 0 through 86400 seconds.
Defaults 0 seconds. If the router enters OverflowState, you must reboot before the router leaves this state.
Command Modes OSPF VRF router configuration mode
Description Use this command to specify how long after a router that has entered the OverflowState before it
can resume normal operation of external LSAs. However, if the external link state database (LSDB)
is still full, the router lapses back into OverflowState.
When the maximum size of the LSDB is reached (this is a configurable value in the
external-lsdb-limit CLI), the router enters OverflowState. In this state, the router flushes all
non-default AS-external-LSAs that the router had originated. The router also stops originating any
non-default external LSAs. Non-default external LSAs are still accepted if there is space in the
database after flushing. If no space exists, the Non-default external LSAs are dropped and not
acknowledged.
For more information, refer to RFC 1765.
Usage Guidelines Enter no database-overflow-interval to disable the overflow interval configuration.
Examples To configure a database-overflow interval of 60 seconds:
switch# configure
switch(config)# rbridge-id 5
switch(config-rbridge-id-5)# router ospf
switch(config-router-ospf-vrf-default-vrf)# database-overflow-interval 60
