the shortest path first (SPF) calculation, and the hold time between making two
consecutive SPF calculations. Use the no form to restore the default values.
Syntax

spf-delay - The delay after receiving a topology change notification and
starting the SPF calculation. (Range: 0-2147483647 seconds)
spf-holdtime - The minimum time between two consecutive SPF
calculations. (Range: 0-2147483647 seconds)
Command Mode
Router Configuration
Default Setting
SPF delay: 5 seconds
SPF holdtime: 10 seconds
Command Usage
◆
Setting the SPF holdtime to 0 means that there is no delay between
consecutive calculations.
◆
Using a low value for the holdtime allows the router to switch to a new path
faster, but uses more CPU processing time.
