time interval.
To configure the FSPF dead time interval, follow these steps:
Command
Step 1
switch# config t
Step 2
switch(config)# interface fc1/4
switch(config-if)#
Step 3
switch(config-if)# fspf dead-interval 25
vsan 7
switch(config-if)#
Disabling FSPF for Specific Interfaces
You can disable the FSPF protocol for selected interfaces. By default, FSPF is enabled on all E ports and
TE ports. This default can be disabled by setting the interface as passive.
FSPF must be enabled at both ends of the interface for the protocol to work.
Note
To disable FSPF for a specific interface, follow these steps:
Command
Step 1
switch# config t
Step 2
switch(config)# interface fc1/4
switch(config-if)#
Step 3
switch(config-if)# fspf passive vsan 1
switch(config-if)#
switch(config-if)# no fspf passive vsan 1
switch(config-if)#

Retransmitting Intervals

You can specify the time after which an unacknowledged link state update should be transmitted on the
interface. The integer value to specify retransmit intervals can range from 1 to 65,535 seconds.
This value must be the same on the switches on both ends of the interface.
Note
OL-6973-03, Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 2.x
Purpose
Enters configuration mode.
Configures the specified interface, or if already
configured, enters configuration mode for the
specified interface.
Specifies the maximum interval for VSAN 7 before
which a hello message must be received on the
selected interface before the neighbor is considered
lost. The default is 80 seconds.
Purpose
Enters configuration mode.
Configures a specified interface, or if already
configured, enters configuration mode for the
specified interface.
Disables the FSPF protocol for the specified interface
in the specified VSAN.
Reenables the FSPF protocol for the specified
interface in the specified VSAN.
