timeout

To enable or disable control messages in an auto IP Service Level Agreements (SLAs) operation
template, use the control command. To return to the default value, use the no form of this command.
Syntax Description
milliseconds
Command Default
The default timeout value varies depending on the type of IP SLAs operation that you are configuring.
Command Modes
IP SLA configuration mode (config-ip-sla)
UDP echo configuration mode (config-ip-sla-udp)
UDP jitter configuration mode (config-ip-sla-jitter)
TCP connect configuration (config-tplt-tcp-conn)
UDP echo configuration (config-tplt-udp-ech)
Command History Release
6.1(1)
Usage Guidelines The value of the milliseconds argument should be based on the sum of both the maximum round-trip
time (RTT) value for the packets and the processing time of the IP SLAs operation.
Use the timeout command to set how long the operation waits to receive a response from its request
packet, and use the frequency command to set the rate at which the IP SLAs operation restarts. The value
specified for the timeout command cannot be greater than the value specified for the frequency
command.
This command does not require a license.
Examples This example shows how to set the timeout value for an IP SLAs operation 1 from 5000 ms:
switch(config)# ip sla 1
switch(config-ip-sla)# udp-echo 172.16.1.176 1
switch(config-ip-sla-udp)# timeout 5000
switch(config-ip-sla-udp)# ip sla schedule 1 start-time now
switch(config)#
OL-27555-03
timeout milliseconds
no timeout
Length of time that the operation waits to receive a response from its
request packet, in milliseconds (ms). The range is from 0 to 604800000.
The value of the milliseconds argument should be based on the sum of
both the maximum round-trip time (RTT) value for the packets and the
processing time of the IP SLAs operation.
