Parameter
length: The length of routing reserve queue, ranging from 1 to 255. The default length
of the routing reserve queue is 4.
Description
Using the ipx rip max-reserve-path command, you can configure the length of
routing reserve queue. Using the undo ipx rip max-reserve-path command, you can
restore the default value.
When the length of the max reserve queue is 1, the system reserves one route only
for a destination. When this unique route is faulty and the system has deleted it, there
will be no route available to this destination, and this will lead to serious loss of
packets. When the length of the reserve queue is greater than 1 and the first route is
deleted, the system can replace it with the next route so as to avoid serious loss of
packets. Increasing the length of the reserve queue will result in more memory of the
system being used by the IPX module.
