Function

The peer out-delay command configures a delay for sending Update packets.

The peer out-delay command deletes the delay for sending Update packets.

The default delay is 0, indicating that Update packets are sent without a delay.

peer { group-name | ipv4-address | ipv6-address } out-delay delay-value

undo peer { group-name | ipv4-address | ipv6-address } out-delay

Parameters

Parameter Description Value

group-name

Specifies the name of a peer group.

delay-value

Specifies the delay for sending Update packets.

The value is an integer ranging from 0 to 3600, in seconds.

  • The ipv4-address parameter applies to the BGP view, BGP-IPv4 unicast address family view, BGP-IPv4 multicast address family view, BGP-VPN-Target address family view, BGP-IPv6 unicast address family view, BGP-VPNv4 address family view, BGP-VPN instance IPv4 address family view.

  • The ipv6-address parameter applies to the BGP-IPv6 unicast address family view, BGP-VPN instance IPv6 address family view.

Usage Guidelines

Precautions

If you run the peer out-delay command repeatedly, the latest configuration overrides the previous configurations.

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

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

Example

# In the BGP view, configure the delay for sending Update packets to 1.1.1.1 as 300s.

<sysname> system-view
[sysname] bgp 100
