neighbor relationship interruption. To resolve this problem, you can restrict the flooding of LSA
update packets to maintain neighbor relationships.
Perform the following steps on the switch running OSPF.
Procedure
Step 1 Run:
system-view
The system view is displayed.
Step 2 Run:
ospf [ process-id ]
The OSPF process view is displayed.
Step 3 Run:
flooding-control [ number transmit-number | timer-interval transmit-interval ]
The flooding of LSA update packets is restricted.
By default, the number of LSA update packets to be flooded each time is 50, and the interval at
which LSA update packets are flooded is 30s.
After the flooding-control command is run, the flooding of LSA update packets is immediately
restricted.
If the flooding-control command is not run, the function of restricting the flooding of LSA
update packets automatically takes effect when the number of neighboring switches exceeds
256.

mechanism is used and the maximum number of packet retransmission attempts is set.
Context
If no response is received when the maximum number of packet retransmission attempts is
reached, the neighbor relationship will be interrupted.
By default, the retransmission mechanism is disabled.
Perform the following steps on the switch running OSPF.
Procedure
Step 1 Run:
