Version Description
9.2(0.0) Introduced on the MXL 10/40GbE Switch IO Module.
Usage
Information
This command provides the flexibility to fine-tune the timer values based on individual interface needs
when you configure the ipv6 ospf bfd command in CONFIGURATION mode. Any timer values
specified with this command overrides timers set using the bfd all-neighbors command. Using
the no form of this command does not disable BFD if you configured BFD in CONFIGURATION mode.
To disable BFD on a specific interface while BFD is configured in CONFIGURATION mode, use the
keyword disable.
ipv6 ospf cost
Explicitly specify the cost of sending a packet on an interface.
Syntax
ipv6 ospf interface-cost
Parameters
interface-cost
Enter a unsigned integer value expressed as the link-state metric. The range is from
1 to 65535.
Defaults Default cost based on the bandwidth.

9.2(0.0) Introduced on the MXL 10/40GbE Switch IO Module.
Usage
Information
In general, the path cost is calculated as:
10^8 / bandwidth
Using this formula, the default path cost is calculated as:
● TenGigabitEthernet—Default cost is 1
● Ethernet—Default cost is 10
ipv6 ospf dead-interval
Set the time interval since the last hello-packet was received from a router. After the time interval elapses, the neighboring
routers declare the router down.
Syntax
ipv6 ospf dead-interval seconds
Parameters
seconds
Enter the time interval in seconds. The range is from 1 to 65535 seconds.
Defaults 40 seconds (Ethernet).
