Setting the Holddown Timer
The holddown timer controls how often OSPF calculates a route. Its purpose is to
free up the CPU. Note that a value of 0 means there is no holddown time.
By default, the holddown timer is set at 1 second. You can use the BCC or Site
Manager to specify a different value.
Using the BCC
Navigate to the global OSPF prompt and enter:
holddown
value
value is 0 (no holdown time) or the holddown time in seconds.
For example, the following command specifies 5 seconds as the OSPF holddown
time:
ospf# holddown 5
ospf#
