ExtremeWare XOS 10.1 Command Reference Guide 521
configure ospf virtual-link timer
configure ospf virtual-link <router-identifier> <area-identifier> timer
<retransmit-interval> <transit-delay> <hello-interval> <dead-interval>
{<wait-timer-interval>}
Description
Configures the timers for a virtual link.
Syntax Description
Default
• retransmit interval—Default: 5
• transit delay—Default: 1
• hello interval—Default: 10
• dead interval—Default: 40
• wait timer interval—Default: dead interval
Usage Guidelines
Configuring OSPF timers on a per-area basis is a shorthand for applying the timers and authentication
to each VLAN in the area at the time of configuration. If you add more VLANs to the area, you must
configure the timers and authentication for the new VLANs explicitly.
Example
The following command sets the timers on the virtual link in area 0.0.0.2 and remote router ID 6.6.6.6:
configure ospf virtual-link 6.6.6.6 0.0.0.2 timer 10 1 20 200
router-identifier Specifies a router number.
area-identifier Specifies an OSPF area.
retransmit-interval Specifies the length of time that the router waits before retransmitting an LSA
that is not acknowledged. The range is 1 - 3,600 seconds.
transit-delay Specifies the length of time it takes to transmit an LSA packet over the
interface. The range is 0 - 3,600 seconds.
hello-interval Specifies the interval at which routers send hello packets. The range is 1 -
65,535 seconds.
dead-interval Specifies the interval after which a neighboring router is declared down due to
the fact that hello packets are no longer received from the neighbor. The
range is 1 - 2,147,483,647 seconds.
wait-timer-interval Specifies the interval between the interface coming up and the election of the
DR and BDR. Usually equal to the dead timer interval.
