Changing LSA Group Pacing

The OSPF LSA group pacing feature allows the router to group OSPF LSAs and pace the refreshing,
check-summing, and aging functions for more efficient router use. This feature is enabled by default with
a 4-minute default pacing interval, and you will not usually need to modify this parameter. The optimum
group pacing interval is inversely proportional to the number of LSAs the router is refreshing,
check-summing, and aging. For example, if you have approximately 10,000 LSAs in the database,
decreasing the pacing interval would benefit you. If you have a very small database (40 to 100 LSAs),
increasing the pacing interval to 10 to 20 minutes might benefit you slightly.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure OSPF LSA pacing:

Purpose
(Optional) Establish a virtual link and set its parameters. See the
"Configuring OSPF Interfaces" section on page 35-26
definitions and Table 35-5 on page 35-24
(Optional) Force the ASBR to generate a default route into the OSPF
routing domain. Parameters are all optional.
(Optional) Configure DNS name lookup. The default is disabled.
(Optional) Specify an address range for which a single route will be
advertised. Use this command only with area border routers.
(Optional) Change the OSPF distance values. The default distance
for each type of route is 110. The range is 1 to 255.
(Optional) Suppress the sending of hello packets through the
specified interface.
(Optional) Configure route calculation timers.
• spf-delay—Delay between receiving a change to SPF
calculation. The range is from 1 to 600000. miliseconds.
spf-holdtime—Delay between first and second SPF calculation.
•
The range is form 1 to 600000 in milliseconds.
spf-wait—Maximum wait time in milliseconds for SPF
•
calculations. The range is from 1 to 600000 in milliseconds.
(Optional) Send syslog message when a neighbor state changes.
Return to privileged EXEC mode.

OSPF" section on page 35-34.
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
Purpose
Enter global configuration mode.
Enable OSPF routing, and enter router configuration mode.
