Using FDP
Enabling FDP at the interface level
By default, FDP is enabled at the interface level after FDP is enabled on the device.
When FDP is enabled globally, you can disable and re-enable FDP on individual ports.
Disable FDP by entering commands such as the following:
TurboIron(config)#int e 1
TurboIron(config-if-1)#no fdp enable
Enable or re-enable FDP by entering commands such as the following:
TurboIron(config-if-1)#fdp enable
Syntax: [no] fdp enable
Changing the FDP update timer
By default, a device enabled for FDP sends an FDP update every 60 seconds. You can change the
update timer to a value from 5 – 900 seconds.
To change the FDP update timer, enter a command such as the following at the global CONFIG level
of the CLI.
TurboIron(config)#fdp timer 120
Syntax: [no] fdp timer <secs>
The <secs> parameter specifies the number of seconds between updates and can be from 5 –
900 seconds. The default is 60 seconds.
Changing the FDP hold time
By default, a device that receives an FDP update holds the information until one of the following
events occurs:
• The device receives a new update.
• 180 seconds have passed since receipt of the last update. This is the hold time.
Once either of these events occurs, the device discards the update.
To change the FDP hold time, enter a command such as the following at the global CONFIG level of
the CLI.
TurboIron(config)#fdp holdtime 360
Syntax: [no] fdp holdtime <secs>
The <secs> parameter specifies the number of seconds a device that receives an FDP update can
hold the update before discarding it. You can specify from 10 – 255 seconds. The default is 180
seconds.
Displaying FDP information
You can display the following FDP information:
• FDP entries for Brocade neighbors
