(Optional) Setting an Interval at Which an LSA Packet Is Retransmitted to the Neighboring router

You can control packet retransmission and improve the convergence rate by setting an interval at which an LSA packet is retransmitted to the neighboring router.

Context

After sending an LSA packet to the neighboring router, the router waits for a response. If no response is received within the set interval, the router retransmits the LSA packet to the neighboring router.

Procedure

  1. Run system-view

    The system view is displayed.

  2. Run interface interface-type interface-number

    The interface view is displayed.

  3. Run ospf timer retransmit interval

    An interval at which an LSA packet is retransmitted to the neighboring router is set.

    Setting the interval to a proper value is recommended. A rather small interval will cause unnecessary retransmission. The interval is generally longer than a round trip of one packet transmitted between two routers.

  4. Run commit

    The configuration is committed.
