Usage
Information
LSAs are sent after the start-interval and then after hold-interval until the maximum
interval is reached. In throttling, exponential backoff is used when sending same
LSA, so that the interval is multiplied until the maximum time is reached. For
example, if the start-interval 5000 and hold-interval 1000 and max-interval
100,000, the LSA is sent at 5000 msec, then 1000 msec, then 2000 msec, them
4000 until 100,000 msec is reached.
timers throttle lsa arrival
Configure the LSA acceptance intervals.
Z-Series
Syntax
timers throttle lsa arrival arrival-time
To return to the default, use the no timers throttle lsa command.
Parameters
arrival-time Set the interval between receiving the same LSA repeatedly,
to allow sufficient time for the system to accept the LSA. The
range is from 0 to 600,000 milliseconds.
Defaults 1000 msec

OSPFv3 Commands
Open shortest path first version 3 (OSPFv3) for IPv6 is supported on the Z-Series platform.
The fundamental mechanisms of OSPF (flooding, DR election, area support, SPF calculations, and so on)
remain unchanged. However, OSPFv3 runs on a per-link basis instead of on a per-IP-subnet basis. Most
changes were necessary to handle the increased address size of IPv6.
The Dell Networking implementation of OSPFv3 is based on IETF RFC 2740.
