Non-Stop Forwarding

 

Title

 

 

Description

 

 

 

 

 

 

nsf

 

Use this command to enable non-stop forwarding. The “no” form of the

 

 

 

 

command will disable NSF.

 

no nsf

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Default: Non-stop forwarding is enabled by default.

 

 

 

 

 

show nsf

 

Use this command to show the status of non-stop forwarding.

 

 

 

 

Default: Not applicable

 

show checkpoint statistics

 

Use this command to display the statistics for the check pointing process.

 

 

 

 

Default: Not applicable

 

clear checkpoint statistics

 

Use this command to clear the statistics of the check pointing process.

 

 

 

 

Default: Not applicable

 

vlan routing vlanid [index]

 

This command is used to enable routing on a VLAN. Us the “no” form of

 

 

 

 

the command to disable routing on a VLAN.

 

 

 

 

Default: Routing is not enabled on any VLANs by default.

 

nsf [ ietf ] [ planned-only ]

 

Use this command to enable OSPF graceful restart. Use the “no” form of

 

 

 

 

this command to disable graceful restart.

 

 

 

 

ietf — This keyword is used to distinguish the IETF standard

 

 

 

 

 

implementation of graceful restart from other implementations. Since

 

 

 

 

 

the IETF implementation is the only one supported, this keyword is

 

 

 

 

 

optional

 

 

 

 

planned-only— This keyword indicates that OSPF should only

 

 

 

 

 

perform a graceful restart when the restart is planned (i.e., when the

 

 

 

 

 

restart is a result of the initiate failover command).

 

 

 

 

Default: Graceful restart is disabled by default.

 

nsf helper [ planned-only ]

 

Use this command to allow OSPF to act as a helpful neighbor for a

 

 

 

 

restarting router. Use the “no” form of this command to prevent OSPF

 

 

 

 

from acting as a helpful neighbor.

 

 

 

 

 

planned-only— This keyword indicates that OSPF should

 

 

 

 

 

 

only help a restarting router performing a planned restart.

 

 

 

 

Default: OSPF may act as a helpful neighbor for both planned an

 

 

 

 

unplanned restarts.

 

nsf [ietf] helper strict-lsa-checking

 

This command is used to require that an OSPF helpful neighbor exit

 

 

 

 

helper mode whenever a topology change occurs. Use the “no” form of

 

no nsf [ietf] helper strict-lsa-checking

 

this command to allow OSPF to continue as a helpful neighbor in spite of

 

 

topology changes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Default: A helpful neighbor exits helper mode upon a topology change.

 

nsf [ietf] restart-interval seconds

 

Use this command to configure the length of the grace period on the

 

 

 

 

restarting router. Use the “no” form of this command to revert the grace

 

 

 

 

period to its default.

 

 

 

 

ietf — This keyword is used to distinguish the IETF standard

 

 

 

 

 

implementation of graceful restart from other implementations. Since

 

 

 

 

 

the IETF implementation is the only one supported, this keyword is

 

 

 

 

 

optional.

 

 

 

 

seconds — The number of seconds that the restarting router asks its

 

 

 

 

 

neighbors to wait before exiting helper mode. The restarting router

 

 

 

 

 

includes the restart interval in its grace LSAs (range 1 – 1800

 

 

 

 

 

seconds).

 

 

 

 

Default: The default restart interval is 120 seconds.

 

show ip ospf

 

This command has been enhanced to lists the values of the configuration

 

 

 

 

parameters described above and the status parameters defined in the

 

 

 

 

RFC 4750 MIB.
