AI2524 Router Card User’s Manual

Configure Parameters for Locally Sourced Packets

In global configuration mode, configure parameters for packets origi- nated by a specified router:

zSpecify in seconds the initial lifetime for locally generated pack- ets.

clns packet-lifetime seconds

zSpecify whether to request ERPDUs on packets originated by the router.

clns want-erpdu

You should set the packet lifetime low in an internetwork that has fre- quent loops.

Warning: The clns want-erpduglobal configuration command has no effect on routing packets (ES-IS, ISO IGRP, and ISIS) originated by the router; it applies to pings and trac- eroute packets.

Example: Performance Parameters

This example shows how to set ES hello packet and IS hello packet pa- rameters in a simple ISO IGRP configuration, as well as the MTU for a serial interface:

router iso-igrp xavier

net 49.0001.004d.0002.0000.0C00.0506.00

1. Send IS/ES hellos every 45 seconds:

clns configuration-time 45

2.Recipients of the hello packets keep information in the hellos for

2 minutes:

clns holding-time 120

3. Specify an mtu of 978 bytes; generally, do not alter the default:

mtu value interface serial 2 clns mtu 978
