Parameter
number: Specifies the multiple of hello time, ranging from 3 to 7.
Description
Using stp timeout-factor command, you can configure multiple of hello time for the
switch. Using undo stp timeout-factor command, you can restore the default multiple
value.
By default, the multiple is 3.
The Ethernet switch transmits RSTP packets every hello time. Generally, if the switch
doesn't receive the RSTP packets from the upstream switch for 3 times of hello time,
the switch will decide the upstream switch is dead and will recalculate the topology of
the network. Then in steady network, the recalculation may be caused when the
upstream is busy. In this case, user can redefine the timeout interval to a longer time
by define the multiple of hello time. The stp timeout-factor command can be used to
modify the value of multiple. It is recommended to set 5, 6 or 7 as the value of multiple
in the steady network.
Example
# Set the multiple value of hello time to 7.
