Configuring Redundant Switches in a Stack for Graceful Restart

By default, OSPF graceful restart is disabled. To configure OSPF graceful restart support use the ip ospf

restart-support command by entering ip ospf restart-support followed by either planned-unplanned

(the default) or planned-only.

For example, to modify OSPF graceful restart so that it only supports planned restarts enter:

-> ip ospf restart-support planned-only

To disable support for graceful restart use the no form of the ip ospf restart-support command by enter-

ing:

-> no ip ospf restart-support

Continuous forwarding during a graceful restart depends on several factors. If the secondary module has a

different router MAC than the primary module, or if one or more ports of a VLAN belonged to the

primary module, spanning tree re-convergence might disrupt forwarding state, even though OSPF

performs a graceful restart.

Note. Graceful restart is only supported on active ports (i.e., interfaces), which are on the secondary or

idle switches in a stack during a takeover. It is not supported on ports on a primary switch in a stack.

Optionally, you can configure graceful restart parameters with the following CLI commands:

For more information about graceful restart commands, see the “OSPF Commands” chapter in the

OmniSwitch CLI Reference Guide.

ip ospf restart-interval Configures the grace period for achieving a graceful OSPF restart.

ip ospf restart-helper status Administratively enables and disables the capability of an OSPF router

to operate in helper mode in response to a router performing a graceful

restart.

ip ospf restart-helper strict-lsa-

checking-status

Administratively enables and disables whether or not a changed Link

State Advertisement (LSA) will result in termination of graceful restart

by a helping router.

ip ospf restart initiate Initiates a planned graceful restart.
