have a very small database (40 – 100 LSAs), increasing the pacing interval to 10 – 20 minutes might enhance
performance slightly.
Changing the LSA Pacing Interval
To change the LSA pacing interval to two minutes (120 seconds), enter the following command:
FESX424 Router(config-ospf-router)# timers lsa-group-pacing 120
Syntax: [no] timers lsa-group-pacing <secs>
The <secs> parameter specifies the number of seconds and can be from 10 – 1800 (30 minutes). The default is
240 seconds (four minutes).
To restore the pacing interval to its default value, enter the following command:
FESX424 Router(config-ospf-router)# no timers lsa-group-pacing
Modify OSPF Traps Generated
OSPF traps as defined by RFC 1850 are supported on Foundry routers. OSPF trap generation is enabled on the
router, by default.
When using the CLI, you can disable all or specific OSPF trap generation by entering the following CLI command:
FESX424 Router(config-ospf-router)# no snmp-server trap ospf
To later re-enable the trap feature, enter snmp-server trap ospf.
To disable a specific OSPF trap, enter the command as no snmp-server trap ospf <ospf-trap>.
These commands are at the OSPF router Level of the CLI.
Here is a summary of OSPF traps supported on Foundry routers, their corresponding CLI commands, and their
associated MIB objects from RFC 1850:
• interface-state-change-trap – [MIB object: OspfIfstateChange]
• virtual-interface-state-change-trap – [MIB object: OspfVirtIfStateChange
• neighbor-state-change-trap – [MIB object:ospfNbrStateChange]
• virtual-neighbor-state-change-trap – [MIB object: ospfVirtNbrStateChange]
• interface-config-error-trap – [MIB object: ospfIfConfigError]
• virtual-interface-config-error-trap – [MIB object: ospfVirtIfConfigError]
• interface-authentication-failure-trap – [MIB object: ospfIfAuthFailure]
• virtual-interface-authentication-failure-trap – [MIB object: ospfVirtIfAuthFailure]
• interface-receive-bad-packet-trap – [MIB object: ospfIfrxBadPacket]
• virtual-interface-receive-bad-packet-trap – [MIB object: ospfVirtIfRxBadPacket]
• interface-retransmit-packet-trap – [MIB object: ospfTxRetransmit]
• virtual-interface-retransmit-packet-trap – [MIB object: ospfVirtIfTxRetransmit]
• originate-lsa-trap – [MIB object: ospfOriginateLsa]
• originate-maxage-lsa-trap – [MIB object: ospfMaxAgeLsa]
• link-state-database-overflow-trap – [MIB object: ospfLsdbOverflow]
• link-state-database-approaching-overflow-trap – [MIB object: ospfLsdbApproachingOverflow
EXAMPLE:
To stop an OSPF trap from being collected, use the CLI command: no trap <ospf-trap>, at the Router OSPF level
of the CLI. To disable reporting of the neighbor-state-change-trap, enter the following command:
FESX424 Router(config-ospf-router)# no trap neighbor-state-change-trap
