Console(config-if)#
ip ospf
transmit-delay
This command sets the estimated time to send a link-state update packet
over an interface. Use the no form to restore the default value.
SYNTAX
ip ospf [ip-address] transmit-delay seconds
no ip ospf [ip-address] transmit-delay
ip-address - This parameter can be used to indicate a specific IP
address connected to the current interface. If not specified, the
command applies to all networks connected to the current interface.
seconds - Sets the estimated time required to send a link-state
update. (Range: 1-65535)
COMMAND MODE
Interface Configuration (VLAN)
DEFAULT SETTING
1 second
COMMAND USAGE
◆ LSAs have their age incremented by this delay before transmission.
When estimating the transmit delay, consider both the transmission
and propagation delays for an interface. Set the transmit delay
according to link speed, using larger values for lower-speed links.
◆ If this delay is not added, the time required to transmit an LSA over the
link is not taken into consideration by the routing process. On slow
links, the router may send packets more quickly than devices can
receive them. To avoid this problem, use the transmit delay to force the
router to wait a specified interval between transmissions.
EXAMPLE
Console(config)#interface vlan 1
Console(config-if)#ip ospf transmit-delay 6
Console(config-if)#
