Release Information

Statement introduced before JUNOS Release 7.4.

Description

Configure the local router so that it appears to be overloaded. You might want to do this when you want the router to participate in IS-IS routing, but do not want it to be used for transit traffic. Note that traffic to immediately attached interfaces continues to transit the router. You can also advertise maximum link metrics in NLRIs instead of setting the overload bit.

Note: If the time elapsed after the IS-IS instance is enabled is less than the specified timeout, overload mode is set.

Options

advertise-high-metrics—Advertise maximum link metrics in NLRIs instead of setting the overload bit.
timeout seconds—Number of seconds at which the overloading is reset.

Usage Guidelines

See Configuring the Router to Appear Overloaded.

Required Privilege Level
