isis csnp-interval
Configure the IS-IS complete sequence number PDU (CSNP) interval on an interface.
Syntax
isis csnp-interval seconds [level-1 | level-2]
To return to the default values, use the no isis csnp-interval [seconds] [level-1 |
level-2] command.
Parameters
seconds Interval of transmission time between CSNPs on multi-access networks for the
designated intermediate system. The range is from 0 to 65535. The default is 10.
level-1 (OPTIONAL) Independently configures the interval of time between transmission of
CSNPs for Level 1.
level-2 (OPTIONAL) Independently configures the interval of time between transmission of
CSNPs for Level 2.
Defaults seconds = 10; level-1 (if not otherwise specified)

9.9(0.0) Introduced on the FN IOM.
9.2(0.0) Introduced on the MXL 10/40GbE Switch IO Module.
Usage
Information
The default values of this command are typically satisfactory transmission times for a specific interface
on a designated intermediate system. To maintain database synchronization, the designated routers send
CSNPs.
You can configure Level 1 and Level 2 CSNP intervals independently.
