Release Information

Statement introduced in JUNOS Release 9.5 for EX Series switches.

Description

Specify the amount of time that a label switched path (LSP) must wait before traffic reverts to a primary path. If during this time the primary path experiences any connectivity problem or stability problem, the timer is restarted.

If you have configured a value of 0 seconds for the revert-timer statement and traffic is switched to the secondary path, the traffic remains on that path indefinitely. It is never switched back to the primary path unless you intervene.

Default

60 seconds

Options

seconds —Value in seconds.

Required Privilege Level
