Chapter 3 Commands Specific to the Content Switching Module with SSL

standby timers

standby timers

To configure the time between hello packets and the time before other routers declare the active hot standby or standby router to be down, use the standby timers command. Use the no form of this command to return to the default settings.

standby [group-number]timers [msec] hellotime [msec] holdtime

no standby [group-number]timers [msec] hellotime [msec] holdtime

Syntax Description

 

group-number

(Optional) Group number on the interface to which the timers apply.

 

 

 

msec

(Optional) Interval in milliseconds.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

hellotime

Hello interval (in seconds); see the “Usage Guidelines” section for valid

 

 

 

 

values.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

holdtime

Time (in seconds) before the active or standby router is declared to be down;

 

 

 

 

see the “Usage Guidelines” section for valid values.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Defaults

 

The defaults are as follows:

 

 

 

group-number is 0.

 

 

 

 

hellotime is 3 seconds.

 

 

 

holdtime is 10 seconds.

CSM-S release 1.1(1) This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines The valid values for hellotime are as follows:

If you did not enter the msec keyword, valid values are from 1 to 254 seconds.

If you enter the msec keyword, valid values are from 15 to 999 milliseconds. The valid values for holdtime are as follows:

If you did not enter the msec keyword, valid values are from x to 255 seconds, where x is the hellotime and 50 milliseconds and is rounded up to the nearest 1 second.

If you enter the msec keyword, valid values are from y to 3000 milliseconds, where y is greater than or equal to 3 times the hellotime and is not less than 50 milliseconds.

If you specify the msec keyword, the hello interval is in milliseconds. Millisecond timers allow for faster failover.
