Configuring the Delay in Transmitting LSAs on an Interface
Context
The LSA ages out in the LSDB of a local switch instead of in the transmission process. You need to set the delay for an LSA before sending it. For a low-speed network, this configuration is necessary.
Do as follows on the switch that runs OSPFv3.
Procedure
- Run system-view
The system view is displayed.
- Run interface interface-type interface-number
The interface view is displayed.
- On an Ethernet interface, run undo portswitch
The interface is switched to Layer 3 mode.
By default, an Ethernet interface works in Layer 2 mode.
The mode switching function takes effect when the interface only has attribute configurations (for example, shutdown and description configurations). Alternatively, if configuration information supported by both Layer 2 and Layer 3 interfaces exists (for example, mode lacp and lacp system-id configurations), no configuration that is not supported after the working mode of the interface is switched can exist. If unsupported configurations exist on the interface, delete the configurations first and then run the undo portswitch command.
If many Ethernet interfaces need to be switched to Layer 3 mode, run the undo portswitch batch interface-type { interface-number1 [ to interface-number2 ] } &<1-10> command in the system view to switch these interfaces to Layer 3 mode in batches.
- Run ospfv3 trans-delay interval [ instance instance-id ]
The delay in transmitting LSAs on the interface is set.
- Run commit
The configuration is committed.
