Modifying the MLD Query Response Interval

The query response interval is the maximum amount of time that can elapse between when the querier router sends a host-query message and when it receives a response from a host. Varying this interval allows you to adjust the burst peaks of MLD messages on the subnet. Larger intervals create more widely spaced node responses and result in less bursty traffic.

By default, the query response interval is 10 seconds. To modify this interval, include the query-response-interval statement:

You can include this statement at the following hierarchy levels:

  • [edit protocols mld]
  • [edit logical-systems logical-system-name protocols mld]

The query response interval can range from 1 through 1024 seconds. It must be less than the host-query message interval.
