ATA ASE IMER
This timer starts when an update response is received. While this timer is running, the routes
learned from this router are still considered reachable, and advertised as such on other interfaces.
When this timer expires, the routes are considered unreachable and advertised as such until the
hold-down timer expires. Valid range for timer: 1 to 10,000 seconds; default: 180 seconds.
H -D T
OLD OWN IMER
While this timer is running, unreachable routes are advertised on other interfaces. This timer starts
when:
• the database timer for the route expires
• a formerly reachable route changes to unreachable in an incoming response
• a WAN circuit goes down
When this timer expires, and the unreachability information is communicated to all the reachable
WAN routers, this route is deleted. Valid range for timer: 1 to 10,000 seconds; default: 120 seconds.
R
ETRANSMISSION
This timer starts when an update request (or response) packet is sent out. If acknowledgment is not
received by the time this timer expires, the packet is retransmitted. Valid range for timer: 1 to 10,000
seconds; default: 5 seconds.
M R
AXIMUM ETRANSMISSIONS
This provides a limit on the number of retransmission attempts for an update request (or response)
packet. Maximum number supported: 10.
P T
OLLING IMER
This is the frequency (in minutes) in which the next-hop WAN router is polled with update
requests, once the maximum retransmission count threshold is exceeded. Polling takes place only
when there is a physical connection; polling does not initiate its own connection. Valid range for
timer: 1 to 10,000 seconds (165 minutes); default: 5 minutes.
