Configuring Fibre Channel Routing Services and Protocols

Dead Time Intervals

You can set the FSPF dead time interval to specify the maximum interval for which a hello message must be
received before the neighbor is considered lost and removed from the database. 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
Caution An error is reported at the command prompt if the configured dead time interval is less than the hello time
interval.

Configuring Dead Time Intervals

You can configure the FSPF dead time interval.
SUMMARY STEPS
1. configure terminal
2. switch(config)# interface fc slot/port
3. fspf dead-interval value vsan vsan-id
DETAILED STEPS
Command or Action
Step 1
configure terminal
Example:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)#
Step 2 switch(config)# interface fc slot/port
Step 3
fspf dead-interval value vsan vsan-id

Retransmitting Intervals

You can specify the time after which an unacknowledged link state update should be transmitted on the
