15.26 ip ospf retransmit-interval

To specify the time between link-state advertisement (LSA) retransmissions for adjacencies belonging
to the interface, use the ip ospf retransmit-interval command in interface configuration mode. To
return to the default value, use the no form of this command.


Command Syntax

ip ospf retransmit-interval seconds
no ip ospf retransmit-interval

seconds

Time (in seconds) between retransmissions. It must be greater than the expected
round-trip delay between any two routers on the attached network. The range is
from 1 to 65535 seconds. The default is 5 seconds.


Default

5 seconds


Command Mode

Interface configuration


Usage

When a router sends an LSA to its neighbor, it keeps the LSA until it receives back the
acknowledgment message. If the router receives no acknowledgment, it will resend the LSA. The
setting of this parameter should be conservative, or needless retransmission will result. The value
should be larger for serial lines and virtual links.


Examples

The following example sets the retransmit interval value to 8 seconds:
interface eth-0-1
ip ospf retransmit-interval 8
