mpls-reflood-timer linear


Configures the Avici router to reflood the link loading information a time interval determined by a piecewise linear model based on reservation amount.

Syntax: mpls-reflood-timer linear reservation_amount1 time1....reservation_amountn timen jitter percent

no mpls-reflood-timer

reservation_amount1

Specifies a percentage of the maximum reservable bandwidth configured for this interface. LSP reservations for the specified amount of bandwidth are reflooded using the associated timer specified by the time1 value.

time1

Specifies the number of seconds since the last event that triggered a reflood the interface waits before flooding the associated reservation_amount1.

Valid values are 0.0 - 4294967.00 <s | ms> where s is seconds and ms is milliseconds.

jitter percent

Specifies a percentage of the time the advertisement is offset to prevent the establishment of many LSPs at the same time.

Valid values are. 0000% - 100.0000%.

Description: LSPs are advertised via the updates distributed by the IGP. Advertisements are flooded to the network from this interface using one of two timers:

where the method is one of three models: immediate, pacing, or linear.

The linear model configures the interface to set up large reservations before smaller reservations. The linear model results in a more efficient packing of LSPs onto a link.

NOTE When IS-IS is the IGP, if one interface reflood timer expires (triggering a reflood), all interfaces are reflooded.

In order to use the linear model, you must configure at least two reservation_amounts and their associated times. You must configure the reservation amounts in descending order and their associated times in ascending order.

Use the mpls-reflood-timer linear command to configure the Avici router to advertise LSPs in descending order of percentage of reserved bandwidth.

Use the no mpls-reflood-timer command to configure the Avici router to advertise LSPs using the factory default values.

Factory Default: If no value is configured, the factory defaults are used.

Command Mode: Configuration.

Example 1: In the following example, the mpls-reflood-timer linear configures the Avici router to reflood link information when a change to available bandwidth occurs. LSPs are reflooded in the following order:

router#configure terminal

Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.

router(config)#mpls-reflood-timer linear 90% 3s 50% 5s 5% 10s jitter 20%

router(config)#end

router#show interface pos 1/1/1

POS 1/1/1 is up, line protocol is up

.

.

.

Reflood timers: linear

90% 3000ms 50% 5000ms 5% 10000ms jitter 20%

.

.

.

Example 2: In the following example, the no mpls-reflood-timer configures the Avici router to reflood link information using the factory defaults:

router#configure terminal

Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.

router(config)#no mpls-reflood-timer

router(config)#end

router#show interface pos 1/1/1

POS 1/1/1 is up, line protocol is up

.
