timers throttle lsa all
Configure LSA transmit intervals.
S4820T
Syntax
timers throttle lsa all {start-interval | hold-interval | max-
interval}
To return to the default, use the no timers throttle lsa command.
Parameters
start-interval Set the minimum interval between initial sending and resending the
same LSA. The range is from 0 to 600,000 milliseconds.
hold-interval Set the next interval to send the same LSA. This interval is the time
between sending the same LSA after the start-interval has been
attempted. The range is from 1 to 600,000 milliseconds.
max-interval Set the maximum amount of time the system waits before sending the
LSA. The range is from 1 to 600,000 milliseconds.
Defaults
• start-interval: 0 msec
• hold-interval: 5000 msec
• max-interval: 5000 msec

Command History
This guide is platform-specific. For command information about other platforms, refer to the
relevant FTOS Command Line Reference Guide .
The following is a list of the FTOS version history for this command.
Version 8.3.19.0 Introduced on the S4820T.
Version 8.3.11.1 Introduced on the Z9000.
Version 8.3.8.0 Introduced on the S4810.
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.
