Parameters
update Enter the number of seconds to specify the rate at which RIP routing updates are sent.
The range is from zero (0) to 4294967295. The default is 30 seconds.
invalid Enter the number of seconds to specify the time interval before routing updates are
declared invalid or expired. The invalid value should be at least three times the update
timer value. The range is from zero (0) to 4294967295. The default is 180 seconds.
holddown Enter the number of seconds to specify a time interval during which the route is marked
as unreachable but still sending RIP packets. The holddown value should be at least three
times the update timer value. The range is from zero (0) to 4294967295. The default is
180 seconds.
ush Enter the number of seconds to specify the time interval during which the route is
advertised as unreachable. When this interval expires, the route is ushed from the
routing table. The ush value should be greater than the update value. The range is from
zero (0) to 4294967295. The default is 240 seconds.
