out-delay

Function

The out-delay command configures a delay for sending Update packets to all BGP peers.

The undo out-delay command deletes the configured delay value.

The default delay value is 0, indicating that the intermediate device on the primary path sends Update packets without a delay.

Format

out-delay delay-value

undo out-delay

Parameters

Parameter Description Value
delay-value Specifies the delay for sending Update packets. The value is an integer ranging from 0 to 3600, in seconds.

Views

Default Level

2: Configuration level

Usage Guidelines

Precautions

If you run the peer out-delay command more than once, the latest configuration overrides the previous one.

If the out-delay and peer route-update-interval commands are both configured, only the out-delay command takes effect.

If a network has high route convergence requirements, do no use the out-delay command.

Example

# Set the delay for sending Update packets to all BGP peers to 300s in the BGP view.

<sysname> system-view
[sysname] bgp 100
