IP OSPF RETRANSMIT-INTERVAL
Syntax
ip ospf retransmit-interval
INTERVAL <1-65535>
no ip ospf retransmit-interval
Parameters
INTERVAL
Specifies the interval in seconds. Choose a value
between 1 and 65535 seconds. The default interval is 5
seconds.
Description
Use the IP OSPF RETRANSMIT-INTERVAL command to specify the time
between link-state advertisement (LSA) retransmissions for adjacencies
belonging to the interface.
After sending an LSA to a neighbor, the router keeps the LSA until it
receives an acknowledgement. In case the router does not receive an
acknowledgement during the set time (the retransmit interval value), it
retransmits the LSA. Set the retransmission interval value conservatively
to avoid needless retransmission. The interval should be greater than the
expected round-trip delay between two routers.
Use the no form of this command to return it to the default value. The
default interval is 5 seconds.
Command Mode
Interface mode
Example
The following example sets the OSPF retransmit interval to 6 seconds on
interface 4:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# interface xe4
switch(config-if)# ip ospf retransmit-interval 6
