timers spf


Provides for the setting of the delay and holddown timers spf.

Syntax: timers spf delayValue holddownValue

delayValue

Specifies the amount of time in seconds to wait before running an SPF after receiving a database change. Supports floating point values. Valid values: 0.00 - 65535.00 Default: 0.00

holddown
Value

Specifies the amount of time in seconds to wait between consecutive SPF runs. Supports floating point values. Valid values: 0.00 - 65535.00 Default: 5.00.

Description: There are two timers associated with controlling the triggering of an OSPF SPF calculation. The delay timer sets the amount of time to wait before running an SPF after receiving a database change. The holddown timer sets the minimum amount of time to wait between consecutive SPF runs. These timers support floating point values between 0.00 and 65535.00.

Use the timers spf delayValue holddownValue command in router configuration mode to set the value for these two timers.

Use the no timers spf command to reset SPF timer defaults.

Use the show ip ospf command to display currently configured SPF timer values.

Factory Default: Delay = 0 seconds, Holddown = 5 seconds.

Command Mode: Router configuration.

Example 1: In the following example the delayValue stays at the default value of 0 seconds, while the holddownValue is changed to 7 seconds:

router(config)#router ospf 12

router(config-router)#timers spf 0 7

router(config-router)end

router#

Example 2: In the following example: SPF timer values are reset to defaults:

router(config)#router ospf 12

router(config-router)#no timers spf

router(config-router)end

router#

Related Commands: show ip ospf
