About FSPF Link Cost

FSPF tracks the state of links on all switches in the fabric, associates a cost with each link in its database,
and then chooses the path with a minimal cost. The cost associated with an interface can be
administratively changed to implement the FSPF route selection. The integer value to specify cost can
range from 1 to 65,535. The default cost for 1 Gbps is 1000 and for 2 Gbps is 500.

Configuring FSPF Link Cost

To configure FSPF link cost, perform this task:
Command
Step 1
switch# configuration terminal
switch(config)#
Step 2
switch(config)# interface fc slot/port
switch(config-if)#
Step 3
switch(config-if)# fspf cost value vsan
vsan-id

About Hello Time Intervals

You can set the FSPF Hello time interval to specify the interval between the periodic hello messages sent
to verify the health of the link. The integer value can range from 1 to 65,535 seconds.
This value must be the same in the ports at both ends of the ISL.
Note

Configuring Hello Time Intervals

To configure the FSPF Hello time interval, perform this task:
Command
Step 1
switch# configuration terminal
switch(config)#
