IP Routing Features 
Configuring IRDP 
for the routing switch to the hold time specified in the new advertisement. 
If the hold time of an advertisement expires, the host discards the adver-
tisement, concluding that the router interface that sent the advertisement 
is no longer available. The value must be greater than the value of the 
maxadvertinterval parameter and cannot be greater than 9000. The default 
is three times the value of the maxadvertinterval parameter. 
■  maxadvertinterval - This parameter specifies the maximum amount of time 
the routing switch waits between sending Router Advertisements. You can 
specify a value from 1 to the current value of the holdtime parameter. The 
default is 600 seconds. 
■  minadvertinterval - This parameter specifies the minimum amount of time 
the routing switch can wait between sending Router Advertisements. The 
default is three-fourths (0.75) the value of the maxadvertinterval param-
eter. If you change the maxadvertinterval parameter, the software auto-
matically adjusts the minadvertinterval parameter to be three-fourths the 
new value of the maxadvertinterval parameter. If you want to override the 
automatically configured value, you can specify an interval from 1 to the 
current value of the maxadvertinterval parameter. 
■  preference < number > - This parameter specifies the IRDP preference level 
of this routing switch. If a host receives Router Advertisements from 
multiple routers, the host selects the router interface that sent the 
message with the highest preference as the host's default gateway. The 
valid range is -4294967296 to 4294967295. The default is 0.
