Modifying the DVMRP Hold-Time Period
The DVMRP hold-time period is the amount of time that a neighbor is to consider the sending router (this router) to be operative (up). The default hold-time period is 35 seconds.
To modify the hold-time value for the local router, include the hold-time statement:
hold-time seconds;
You can include this statement at the following hierarchy levels:
- [edit protocols dvmrp interface interface-name]
- [edit logical-systems logical-system-name protocols dvmrp interface interface-name]
The hold-time period can range from 1 through 255 seconds.
