3. Enter IPv4 address family configuration mode using the address-family ipv4 command.
4. Configure the router purge timer using the ip hitless-route-purge-timer command.
Example for setting the IPv4 hitless purge timer
on the non-default VRF
The following example shows how to set the IPv4 purge timer on the non-default VRF:
Brocade(config)# vrf blue
Brocade(config-vrf-blue)# rd 10:10
Brocade(config-vrf-blue)# address-family ipv4
Brocade(config-vrf-blue-ipv4)# ip hitless-route-purge-timer 60
Setting the IPv6 hitless purge timer on the defatult VRF
To configure the purge timer, enter the ipv6 hitless-route-purge-timer command in global
configuration mode.
Example for setting the IPv6 hitless purge timer
on the defatult VRF
The following example shows how to set the IPv6 hitless purge timer on the default VRF:
Brocade(config)# ipv6 hitless-route-purge-timer 60
Setting the IPv4 hitless purge timer on the non-default VRF
Before you begin: Enable IPv6 unicast routing using the ipv6 unicast-routing command in global
configuration mode.
