1224 OSPF Commands
external-lsdb-limit
Use the external-lsdb-limit command in Router OSPF Configuration mode
to configure the external LSDB limit for OSPF. If the value is -1, then there is
no limit. When the number of non-default AS-external-LSAs in a router's
link-state database reaches the external LSDB limit, the router enters
overflow state. The router never holds more than the external LSDB limit
non-default AS-external-LSAs in it database. Use the no form of the
command to return the limit to the default value.

number of non-default AS-external-LSAs set at 20.
