Version Description
pre-6.1.1.1 Introduced on the E-Series.
max-metric router-lsa
Configure the maximum cost of 65535 on a new router so that it functions as a stub router in the network
and OSPF traffic destined to other networks is not forwarded on a path through the router.
C-Series, E-Series, Z-Series, S4810
Syntax max-metric router-lsa [on-startup {announce-time | wait-for-bgp [wait-
time]}]
To remove the maximum metric assignment from an OSPF router and send LSAs with
the currently configured cost, enter no max-metric router-lsa [on-startup {announce-
time | wait-for-bgp [wait-time]}].
Parameters
on-startup
announce-time
Enter the time (in seconds) following boot-up during which the
maximum cost (65535) for transmitting OSPF traffic on router
interfaces is announced in LSAs and the router functions as a
stub router.
Range: 5 to 86400 seconds.
on-startup wait-
for-bgp [wait-
time]
Enable the router to announce the maximum metric in OSPF
LSAs until the BGP routing table converges with updated routes.
Default: 600 seconds.
You can also specify the time (in seconds) that the router waits
for the BGP routing table to converge before it stops advertising
the maximum cost in LSAs and advertises the router’s currently
configured OSPF cost. Range: 5 to 86400 seconds.
Defaults Not Configured.
Command Modes
